Now some of us are rethinking whether we’ll provide references.
Recently “Jo” was let go. I don’t know the full circumstances, but I was told there was “cause.” Since then many of us have kept in touch with Jo, commiserating and offering support.
We have already returned Jo’s contribution , but most of us believe that asking to have money for a baby gift returned is tacky and even kinda petty. My first thought is that Jo is in a spiral and might suddenly be very worried about finances. It is not necessarily rational for Jo to believe that reclaiming this $20 will substantially affect the outcome, and yet when your employment situation has suddenly changed, immediate choices are not always rational.
