I didn't even think they had anyone from the BG era still there.

Imagine having the same job for 23 years and then going "fuck you bye".

There is no social contract anymore.

Dude could be getting a severance package over a year long at this point, I don't know if that's a "fuck you bye"

I wouldn't mind it, typically that level of service comes with redundancy pay. Depends where he was based, if he was working in the US then he'd probably be left high and dry, because US employment is shit.

Could've been a mutual decision. They may have taken the hot because they were already thinking of leaving at some point anyway. That sort of thing happens sometimes.

Lol I don't even have to imagine that. It's funny you point out 23 years because that's exactly how long I worked at my previous job before moving on in 2022.
