E.g. Bob's super smart and gets 10 times the work done as anyone else but he also sexually harasses the secretary and dips into the petty cash drawer at least once a week.
It should be clear we don't want to have Bob as our employee. See Susan Fowler's experience with her boss at Uber who sexually propositioned her repeatedly but HR said they would not remove because he was a high performer... https://www.susanjfowler.com/blog/2017/2/19/reflecting-on-on...
Wasn't suggesting anything related to firing or not.
@ooobit2 I was asking, only to hopefully learn a bit about how people who do such weird things, can be like, otherwise at the workplace.
> I've fired people for having less wherewithal than to ask a question like this
Makes me wonder if you've fired people in the past, because of misunderstandings
It is precisely because of the magnitude of his error that it would have been nicer to fire him before he made it.
That's right -- I'm interested in hopefully recognizing such signs myself, sooner rather than later
