Silent But Deadly

Don't you love it when people get 'let go' and the way the information is released spreads quietly like a noxious gas?

All of the remaining corporate slave monkeys whisper the news, send chats, and generally distribute the news at low levels, as if spreading news of a venereal disease outbreak in a rest home. Sick man, it's sick!

Another classic move is when people's names are removed from the employee directory before they even leave the organization or before their colleagues are notified of the 'organizational changes'. It's the subtle yet effective bitch-slap on the back as you exit.
