Best time to terminate lackluster employees Christmas Eve, or just call them Christmas Day and tell them not to return

Tell them now so they don't go out now spending money and getting in debt for things they won't be able to pay for without a job.

Don't be surprised when the go postal on you OP

^^^THIS^^^

And then it will be posted as breaking news here on GLP by one of us, and someone will ask, "Hey, wasn't there someone on here talking about doing that a while back?"

Don't do it!

and doing that isn't "nasty" in your book? Do whatever you would want done to you.......you reap what you sow.

I would do it after the Christmas break. Start the new year by ringing out the old lackluster employees. Your other good employees won't be bummed out so much by it that way.

This is your third thread on this "subject", OP, haven't you had enough indulgence of your moranic fantasies yet?

The best time is when it's time, i.e. they are not meeting expectations, certainly NOT a holiday. Wtf.
Hell, did yeah even let them know they weren't meeting expectations and give them a chance to turn it around? I'm guessing, probably not...not if you're posting something like this.

Shameful to terminate them on a holiday, shameful.
