About this weblog
Here we'll report daily on the latest tech and business developments in New York City. Impossible we concede: comprehensive coverage of the city's every story. What we hope you'll find: tips, tidbits and perspectives you won't find elsewhere. As well as unique insights, original interviews and more that should be of interest to New York's vibrant community of technologists and those who track, invest in and report on them.
As Barbara Hoffman of the New York Post explains in today's NYP@Work section, "firing isn't easy for anyone - even when you do it once a week, on reality television." Like Donald Trump, for instance. With a big, half-page photo of The Donald as a backdrop for the article, Barbara Hoffman provides some tips and advice for anyone in the uncomfortable position of having to fire someone. The first step, says Hoffman, is to "document, document, document." Or, as we like to refer to it, CYA. Oh, and as an added bonus, a work/life consultant explains in an accompanying sidebar why "only wimps fire people on Friday afternoons."
