I fired my employee going through divorce and when it is finalize, I would rehire him – Man
An Indian man named Yashdeep Kanhai recently posted a contentious choice on LinkedIn. He disclosed that he had let go of a worker who was going through a difficult divorce.
Kanhai clarified that he took this action to shield the worker from financial difficulties while the divorce was being processed. He reasoned that until the divorce was finalized, the employee would not be able to earn any money.
Kanhai went on to say that after the divorce is finalized, he plans to rehire the worker.
He wrote:
“I Fired an Employee Going Through a Tough Divorce 💔💼
One of my employees was stuck in a messy divorce—his wife demanded half his income. 😵💸 As a good boss, I couldn’t just stand by.
So, I did the most compassionate thing possible: I fired him. 🚪👋
Why? 🤔
No income = no alimony. 🤑💡 The divorce was finalized with negligible alimony, and financial ruin was averted.
Once the dust settled, I rehired him. 🫡 Now, he’s back—better than ever—with a clean slate and no ex-spouse draining his paycheck.
Being a leader isn’t about making easy decisions—it’s about making smart ones. 💼💡”
