Boss decides to save employees and fires herself instead
[link to www.metro.co.uk]


Boss Lola Gonzalez needed to fire someone to save her company – so decided to sack herself instead of firing any of her employees.

The 51-year-old realised she needed to fire a member of staff to save her firm, which runs background checks for employers, after it suffered the effects of the global recession.

But after deciding she couldn’t face firing any of her hard-working employees, Gonzalez fired herself instead.

She told a US TV show that she was ‘angered’ when she realised she had to fire someone, so after consulting with her lawyer the selfless lady decided to fire herself and leave her employees in charge. ....

Willing martyr or willing idiot?

I wonder if this will be a decision she'll regret in about... oh... 99 weeks when all of a sudden she can't find a job because she's 53.

Might save the company so it's an investment in the future.

Prolly her salary was the biggest anyway. Nothing to say she can't give herself a stipend contract pay. And she's eligible for severance and Cobra - so maybe with savings she will be much more capable of enduring the cut than her workers.

Epic win in hard times. Good for her.
