spot on. in most situations, we should all prefer a bullet to the head than five bullets to the chest and a slow bleed.

i’ve also witnessed masterful firings where the person being ‘fired’ is convinced that parting ways is the best thing to happen to them that the firing ends up as a resignation.

Now the latter is wild to me tbh

Thanks for your thoughts!
