Firing someone over Teams

A guy in the US from my old team got given their papers with their paycheck, like your P45 or US equiv. and no one had told him he was fired. He called up his company manager (who wasn't actually his line manager, but you need a company one if your line manager is overseas) and was like WTF is this? He was like errr... let me get back to you... called his actual boss who was like oh yea, ****, forgot that... deal with it.

Companies are fun. Do that!
 
Once someone was fired and refused to leave site and threaten with violence. Security was scared to do anything and the police needed to be called.

I wish teams was around when I was doing the rounds. Disciplinaries, Performance Management and Dismissal are some of the most uncomfortable things I have ever had to deal with. It is a little bit easier to tell someone they are useless behind a screen!

As a leader that's fired someone, there's an air of fear in the eyes of those you talk to in the office after firing someone. If I have to fire someone, I will usually bring the team together after to draw a line under it and help the recovery process.
