An order to fire on people that do not fire on you is a completely illegal order.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't order laws, I propose them.
They're either going to fire you or they're not. They can only fire you. That's all they can do. They can't take your thumbs.
If you fire people, you fire customers.
I don't even like firing people. I don't think I've ever said, 'You're fired' to anybody.
It is folly to punish your neighbor by fire when you live next door.
In the rest of the industrialized world, your boss can't fire you unless he or she can give a good reason. In America, with certain exceptions, your boss can fire you for any reason at all or for no reason at all.
Never give an order that can't be obeyed.
I did not fire Brian Wilson from the Beach Boys. I cannot fire Brian Wilson from the Beach Boys. I am not his employer. I do not have such authority. And even if I did, I would never fire Brian Wilson from the Beach Boys. I love Brian Wilson. We are partners. He's my cousin by birth and my brother in music.
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.
I wasn't made to take orders. My grandmother used to tell me: 'Laws are for idiots.' She was right.
