termination

Description

Termination is the ceremonial decree used to liberate an employee from the chains of wage servitude. It typically arrives like a piranha slipping into a gap of security, bringing panic and unease. This final weapon of cost-cutting alchemy stands as both the gospel of corporate efficiency and the shackle of survival competition. Its unfortunate recipients receive the gift of perpetual “future insecurity.” All they are left with is a tattered resume and an indelible sense of guilt.
