Yesterday, I had to do something I have never done before. I had to let someone from my team go. Now, being the CTO as eHarbor Inc., I have hired about 10 people, but I haven’t had to let anyone of them go. Until yesterday.
Luckily, he saw it coming. When you are the low man on the totem pole, and your work is sub par compared to the team, you see these things coming.
So long story short, my foray into firing went well, if you could call it that. No tears were shed and I think my ulcer didn’t have too much added to it.
