Business Sense 101 [Friday]

"Well, at least it's warmer today, right?" Hatter proclaimed as the students came into the Danger Shop. "While you might be suffering from other...things, we can all be nice and warm, can't we?"

Hopefully.

"Anyway, I'm not going to make this too hard a class for today," he told them. "We talked a little about staffing the other week and hiring those that are qualified but won't break the bank by being too qualified. Now, we're going to talk about firing people."

Dun dun dun.

"Yes, it's a fact of life, sometimes you have to let an employee go. Whether it be because of a poor performance, a bad fit for the job, or a myriad of other things, you, as a boss, will have to terminate employment. It can be difficult because you are dealing with another human being but you have to think of your business first and foremost. If you keep this employee, your business will suffer. Even if it's just minor at first, it will suffer in the long run so cutting the cord now is what is needed."

Hatter pushed a few buttons and got the simulation started.

"Today, you are all playing the role of the boss and you're going to fire someone. Be strong, don't cry and be confident in your business. Ready? Go."

Ezra was actually frighteningly good at this. He was all business, calm, rational. He didn't cry. He wasn't unnecessarily cruel, but he got the job done.

He'd maybe learned a thing or two with the Coterie, even if that was a business you didn't exactly get fired from. Except perhaps literally.
