Sarah, I think your jobs on the line.
Nobody should be treated like that.
Welcome to the technocratic globalised future that most people will be willing to accept once the international bankers have had their way.

What difference does it make how you hear about being made redundant - you're still redundant. The sooner you find out the sooner you can get looking for something else rather than waiting days for a letter to arrive.

A phone call...ooooh, why is this worse than any other type of communication? It's personal, it has zero carbon footprint and it's quick - what's not to like?
What do they want, a fricken' parchment with a royal seal on a velvet cushion? FFS! It's hard to believe this country won two world wars.
