Thanks for your reply. I have a few thing to say.

Reading your comment I realized that you are more than I connecting together the decision making part of firing someone and actual action to be made.

I was taking about red flags. Like stealing something which is found on cameras, like making a fight etc.

But I also meant such signs as: person is not able to fulfill the task in a week and you see all the signs that it wont start improving, or say someone is late to the office starting the first day and the overall communications show you that this wont improve.

I am talking about signs that you as a manager find and make the final decision and does not matter if it took you a week or a minute.

Working with people and letting them know upfront that something is wrong is a separate thing. I am strong believer that sometimes it is just waste of time.
