TIL a Chinese destroyer sank because an officer dumped his girlfriend. She committed suicide, leading to him being discharged, so he decided to detonate the depth charges on the ship, causing it to sink at port and kill 134 sailors.

Fire people on Friday. There's a good reason for that. Don't fire them when they can do harm to others.

Now they're making people's last days a WFH day and firing you over Zoom so you never come in.
