A Case of Wrongful Dismissal?
January 28, 2011
I let an employee go when she told me that she “just couldn’t be nice” to the coworker I assigned her to collaborate with on a project because the woman was “too boring and talked too much about nothing.” When I told her that refusing to try to work amicably with someone else was the same as saying, “I quit,” she told me that I was really firing her and that she would sue me. Does she really have a case? Was I wrong to let her go? She’s the only person who seemed to have any complaints about this so-called “boring” employee.
