Of course I want to be laid off. But they keep all the ones who want to be laid off, and lay off the ones who actually want to stay It’s the allergan way! #bebold
This is so true. The older you are the more true it is. If you try to “do the right thing” and discuss your willingness to be included in a layoff in lieu of a younger employee who wants to stay they actually do the exact opposite. It’s even worse if you try to be ethical and keep working hard. I know someone who was told by their manager that their numbers were “too good” to be included in a layoff. So the person stopped working and started tanking quarters. Another hard to believe but true story about how incredibly inept some managers and sales directors are in the company.
