          Most recent one was a little lol because I had gotten a ~15 minute heads up from another terminated coworker about what was going down – HR was late to mine, so there was around 10 minutes of empty small talk with the boss.

                It's when you completely dismantle their issues, and they carry on repeating said point. Time to go then

                  Happened to my partner, she worked from home 4 out of 5 days a week.

                  The company also had a lawyer there. All her accounts were locked by the end of the call, so she couldn't exchange contacts with colleagues she liked. They sent a box and shipping label for her notebook, but never mentioned the two 27" Dell monitors and the height adjustable table.

                  Sucked at the time, but the gear they left us is pretty nice.

                  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

                    I'm usually early to work meetings, so this is usually how it feels till people drag themselves through the door 10 minutes later.

                    ::: spoiler I once had that meeting, sort of

                    Only been with the boss and HR as a matter of performance once, I stayed for a shift I usually wasn't on, and a manager I'd never met but only heard was a total hardass was having a shitty day (parent passed, but i had no idea, I'd never met this guy). He passes my workstation, first time meeting the dude, and chews me out for some computer shit. Totally fair - I was on reddit or something on a work computer and policy is not to, then a coworker across the floor does something humerous as manager is walking away. He files a report I laughed at him. I was under the impression I'd been written up for computer misuse the entire hr meeting, so thats what I defended and admitted to. In retrospect, fuck that guy and fuck that workplace, I got a 6 month probationary period for that. I served it no issues, but no wonder they have staffing issues and no wonder no one likes the managers.

                      If a department is dragging and gets better once someone is replaced, then you had an employee issue. If a department is dragging and you keep replacing employees, you've got a management/company issue.

                          Its a state facility. They don't have turnover - they have churn. 200-300% churn annually. Good benefits though.

                          I rationed that in order for me to come back I'd need $70/hr to do that job again (100k annual after tax) and obviously they wont approve that lol

                            Among other things, I was in charge of on and offboarding and buying IT gear. HR basically told me if the employee won't return the laptop we just have to suck it up. I may be misremembering, but legally speaking, we gave them the gear, no matter what paperwork they signed. And in no case would it pay to so much as begin legal action.

                            And no, we don't want the monitors. Just not worse the hassle and shipping.

                                  Just horrible. When I had to deal with people that I had to lay off or fire because they weren't working out I would calmly sit down with them and say, "we need to work together on an exit plan for you". I would then try to use my contacts to get them hooked up some place else and always give them a good recommendation.

                                    Mine was just a zoom invite texted to me with just my boss, but I figured the jig was up when I couldn't log into my work laptop.

                                      Most competent companies lock down laptops so that even if they didn't return them, it would be a useless brick

                                        Yep. The invite was sent at nighttime the previous day so I didn't even show up for it. Manager had to ping me on slack to get me into the meeting to get laid off while I was still in bed slowly waking up that morning.

                                        And I was so completely done with that company that I just broke out in laughter as soon as the call ended. Couldn't have worked out better for me.
