The First Is The Hardest

This week, I fired my first employee.

This little douchebag was caught indirectly setting up elaborate schemes to defraud the company, by his boss’s boss. Since we didn’t have evidence, I gave him the option of resigning or being fired - he opted for the latter because it comes with a huge payday in China (when you can’t prove it).

I placed him in a little room, and set a security guard outside. When he decided he wanted to be fired, I gave him his paycheck (enough to purchase a QQ car in this part of the world) and he was escorted out immediately.

Apparently this gets easier after your first firing…

Other evil stuff that I have done for the first time today because I had no other choice include other nasty stuff that I would not even be comfortable telling my mom about.

It’s really easy, to go down this path towards becoming a grotesque monster.
