Before you fire someone, you need to give the poor sap a warning. That’s not just conventional wisdom, it’s the law in most places. But how many warnings before you lose your patience? I don’t know the answer there and hope I do not have to fire anyone. All I know is that ever when you fire someone, you need to be professional. In other words, don’t fire someone a week before Christmas. Obviously only the lowest of the lows would do that, but you never know. The meek have inherited parts of the world.
The same common sense applies to law. Oftentimes lawyers plan in stealth mode and strike in a surprise move. I understand why you do that, but frankly, when a client authorizes such a tactic, they set themselves up for a counter-strike. This begs the question, just because one party acted callously with no fair warning, should you return the favor and strike back without giving them a fair warning?
Well, two wrongs don’t make a right. If I ever had to counter strike someone in legal matters, I am pretty sure I’d still give them a fair warning, then again, that’s just me.
