Sometimes I am the recipient of information I don't want to know and certainly cannot disclose. It is a burden when things that were told to me come to fruition just as predicted.
Today was one of those times when what I knew was going to happen happened---and it saddens me. A cutting of ties between an entity and an employee for reasons not consistent with the announced reason. It is so sad when a gifted incumbent is let go because of what may be a too strict interpretation of a Principle of Human Resources. The result is pain to the individual as well as the organization.
I have done a too strict interpretation of an Episcopal directive regarding burial and I feel bad even after 22 years.
I fear that the Boss will feel bad once they think about it.
But time will tell if there is growth in that direction or a denial of the too strict interpretation being bad.
