Radio Shack Fires 400 By Email

You've got mail!

Imagine learning you've just lost your $90,000 a year job via e-mail. That's just what happened to some Radio Shack employees, apparently.

Does that strike anyone else as an underhanded method of managing difficult personnel conversations?

Look at it this way--they saved a lot of time by not having to hold an actual personal conversation with each pink-slipped employee. Which means their $120,000/year HR manager had more time to get out on the golf course and enjoy the bonus he/she just got for canning 400 people so efficiently.
