The firing of the employee went down earlier today.

They decided to turn it into a resignation to save face.

Had to step in to prevent it turning into an argument with their manager, but handled it well.

The employee thanked me for my professionalism when I walked them to their car, and they hugged me goodbye.

So glad I held a debriefing with their team afterward. It honestly helps me as much as it helps them.

Still feeling a bit from it. So my self care starts now with a curried cauliflower pie from Country Cob

Speaking of Country Cob, their vanilla slices are amazing! I've tried a few of their pies and wasn't very impressed though, especially for the price.

Can't speak for their meat ones, but the vegetarian ones are great.

I think it's more that it's a treat to have a place offer more than a bland token vegetable pastie

That's true. Curried cauliflower sounds pretty good.
