I know how important it is for folks to be able to say goodbye, so we've created a #gratitude-and-farewell Slack channel as a place for all of us to connect, if you feel comfortable.

Getting your ass kicked out the door, but you’re supposed to feel grateful ffs

Let me say, as a person who worked at a company that used to silently disappear people, it sucked finding out in Thursday that so-and-so has been gone for a week and a half and wasn't coming back.

So I, at least, appreciate the idea that they get to communicate at all.

News still sucks, but I wanted to throw that in

Only thing worse than that is finding out day of because you're the one that has to terminate all their accounts. Did that to two of my coworkers in the span of about 18 months....

Pretty sure this is for people to thank their departing friends and teammates. Not the other way around.
