Being Fired.. And how to deal with it.

[MrFrisp]

What happened to you?

Was called in one afternoon and told they are restructuring, and the role I was doing was no longer required.

No hint, no warning, no idea.

Took all of 3 minutes.

Ahmm... The back door.

Rough.

Ahmm... The back door.

Rough.

Rough enough alright.

Was still on probation time, so nothing I could do.

Of those 3 minutes it took, 2 were Me asking the boss, 'what the fuck like, what did I do?'

HR's job is to look out for the organisation and do what's best for it. What's best for the employee is not their priority. Anybody who thinks otherwise is very naive.

that's the whole point. I've never been in the position of Siggy and Frispy but there have been periods of my career where i really could have used some impartial expert advice.

Internal HR's job is primarily to protect the company.

Solicitor's theoretically could and do provide this sort of service but by the nature of their profession engaging one seems expensive and rather drastic.

Unions are supposed to dosimilar for their members but too often wont do much at individual level

This seems like a smart move to me for HR experts and empoyees alike
