You’re not really helping the argument for not firing people in the middle of December. During this end of the year period, a lot of companies are basically paying people for doing little to nothing at all. I’ve closed maybe two tickets.

edit: nooo don’t downvote me I wasn’t saying to fire them

You are missing the point of the parents post. It’s more nefarious to fire people at the holidays because it’s harder for them to get a new job as the people at the new place are only closing 2 tickets.
