I can't even imagine how much firing someone would suck. I hope you get paid handsomely for a having that kind of stressful role!

Until 2 years ago, I was trying to work my way up the corporate ladder. I got made redundant before I hit manager luckily, because I really started to pay attention to the work my manager had to do & I knew deep down I could never handle it. She had to fire a co-worker of mine & it really shook her for a good couple of weeks after. She honestly wasn't sad when she was made redundant with me.

I'll grab a ginger ale too thanks. Extra ice.

I have been doing this for about four years, and it still messes with me every time. Some other managers I know try to convince me with phrases like "There's always a reason for someone being fired", or "It's all part of the game", but that doesn't help me at all. I know how bad it is to be in their shoes, and I can't feel good about it in any way.

Glad to have a ginger ale partner here! Cheers!
