Do you really share the opinion that being fired on the spot is less dehumanizing than being given a chance to look for another job while being given a steady paycheck?
I'm not trying to be generous -- I don't want to live in a world where it's the norm for employers to rip the floor up from under people. I don't care if some people are so secure in their finances they prefer that world.

- kcplate 4y agoShe didn’t like the job and the expectations made of her. The job was a “poor fit”. She “feared the worse” (getting fired? I thought that is what she preferred). She was given a job that was less stressful and within her abilities, but that was “dehumanizing”. I suspect she was not doing the job adequately and that necessitated the company to make a change. Could there be a more gentle change? In my opinion, she was given a gift. The opportunity to find another job while working with a safety net that would likely last much longer than a severance if it took a while to find the next “right” opportunity.
