katyakay(@katyakayy):My boss called everyone into the conference room at 4:55 p.m. on a Friday. He announced that one person would be laid off before the end of the day. No names. No explanations. Just one envelope sitting in the middle of the table. Then he walked out. For twenty minutes, nobody spoke. People avoided eye contact. One coworker quietly started crying. When the boss returned, the envelope was gone.
