Being fired or laid off isn't a negative event? In what world? This perception blows my mind. Being "let go" can be devastating. Especially for long time employees.

It's also extremely negative for the company. It's as much a failure on the companies part as it is the employees (with exception of course. Misconduct being an obvious one).



how about you'd already decided to leave and are now actively slacking... its free money for minimum effort until the employer realises it?


They should have put in their X weeks notice or the company should have had the foresight to weed someone like that out before hiring them.
