.....HOW TO CORRECTLY HANDLE THE DISMISSAL INTERVIEW....In life, it
will frequently happen that your superior will call you into his or her office, close the door, and
inform you that you are "overqualified" for your present position and should immediately clean
your desk out in the presence of the security guard, never to set foot within the company again.
In this circumstance, any of the following reactions is considered distinctly impolite: Crying;
Making the point that your wife will starve and you'll have to sell your children to
slave labor camps in third world countries; throwing up; throwing down pens, pencils, or electric
pencil sharpeners; fainting; hitting; making undocumented remarks about the person's ancestors,
intelligence, lifestyle or personal proclivities. As in most social situations, a simple "Thank you"
should suffice, ensuring that you will be well thought of during the remaining few minutes when
anybody in the firm will ever be thinking about you.....
