Brings to mind the good ol’ American business practice of wielding the Executive Stiletto. The idea was to fire certain employees shortly before they were permitted to receive their retirement packages. RCA, for example, engaged in this practice. Don’t get me wrong here. Big Management wasn’t always THAT draconian; sometimes the prospective pigeon was given the alternative of uprooting his life and family to fill out his time in some abysmal division or location.
