Lay-offs via Email: Friend or Foe?
An interesting news story broke on Tuesday, August 29, in the Dallas/Fort Worth area: A large provider of jobs, RadioShack, delivered lay-off notifications to 403 individuals by email. No tap on the shoulder from a supervisor… no HR representative hovering near the cubicle…just an email saying that the recipient no longer had a job and to please be in a particular conference room 30 minutes hence.
The question of the day is: How would you feel in that situation?
Is it less of a shock to receive that type of news in an email, or would you prefer a face-to-face meeting? Log a comment with your opinion and let’s start a dialog with other readers.
