• In this story, a small business owner had changed their opinion on an employee who had stuck with them from the very start. She had helped them to build the business when it was a lot of hard work for not a lot of pay, but now they were not satisfied that she was still able to do what they wanted her to do in the role.

  They believed that they had hinted at this with her and seen no improvement, and they saw their next step as firing her from the business permanently. They were unsure about their decision.

• Am I wrong for firing someone who stayed when my business had nothing?
