Its different when its your friends. Over the last 6 months I have had to make a number of people redundant, it’s the way of the market, however when you hear about others going through the same thing it feels different.
What makes it worse is when they use such a poor process. By miss using the same process as I have used 60 people are affected rather than just 10. Its madness. The only saving grace is that even this pitiful effort will not save the share price. As they approach the end of H1, I am sure the share price will continue to drop. The big cash payout that the bastards who run the business want will not happen, they had their chance and ditched the wrong people. Those people are now happy and have fulfilment, what do they have.
As for my day, I had my first meeting with my first sales direct report. Just a £600k target for the next 10 weeks, I like small challenges!
I was however home by 18:30, tea by 19:30, and another 3 episodes of Spooks, nice!
