It's a terrible way to learn that you are out of a job. But it's fairly common in the startup scene - especially for startups that fail. Sometimes, they don't even bother sending you the text. You just show up one day to work to see the lights are out and office equipment is gone.
- lowercased 8y agoi came back from a meeting at 3pm. 3:07 - guy in the cube next to me said "wtf, my email to you just bounced back?" 3:09 someone came with a box to escort me out of the building. 3:19 main client calls me on my mobile asking why emails to me are bouncing. i was the only contact and worker on the client's project. HR person wanted me out so bad they just cut me off without transitioning the client services to someone else.
