Fire fast: Fire people who do not fit into the culture of your company and who are negative.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Fire people who are not workaholics.
I've never been the sort of firebrand that I've been made out to be. I'm actually quite a mild person.
The worst way to fire somebody is to let it drag out. It's not good for that person because they're not succeeding in their role. And it's not good for the organization because it's just not working.
The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.
Flame mails and offensive Internet activities are not classy. It doesn't fit with our culture here, where we respect the gender, race, opinions, ear-lobe apparel and choice of clothing of all employees.
Firemen can do almost everything. You already trust them in life-threatening situations; why not let them help you with your everyday problems, too?
Firefighters go where they're needed, sometimes ignoring the dangers even when no one is inside a burning building to be saved.
Fire is the test of gold; adversity, of strong men.
Fire taps something ancient and vital in each of us, something both snarling and reverential.
If you fire people, you fire customers.
