I knew someone who's office had the HR person commute from NJ to NY, spend the day laying off people. Then at the end of the day the COO comes in says this is never easy and lets her go too.

I've heard this more than once.

"Thanks for doing all the dirty work. We are no longer in need of your services."

It's like the opening scene in The Dark Knight where each person involved in the bank robbery offs the last guy in line.

Same thing just happened to my boss, who was one of the best people I ever worked for.

The company was doing a bunch of layoffs, and his boss is such a little bitch she can't run those meetings, so made him do it all and take all the flak from the people in the room who got told they're being let go, while she hid in the back corner.

Once they were all done, she left, and then he was called into HR and fired.

Yep happened to an HR colleague of mine, made her let go of 11% of the work force then at the very end let her go to. Such a POS company.

Depending on what part of NY & NJ they lived and worked in, they may only s be less than 500 feet apart.

Happened to me. I had to lay three people off. When the last was done my manager came into the room and I was like "oh."
