Never ask about severance pay

This is a hilarious Farcus cartoon that I cut out of the paper 17 years ago and have stuck up in my office.

Every time I look at it I laugh.

Sometimes, and I hate to be the one doing it, I have to give people – and entire divisions – the ax. That’s never my preference, but if I have to cut off a limb to save a body I’m going to do it.

Farcus just puts the harsh reality of those moments in cartoon form.
