This is a problem SaaS can solve, scapegoat as a service.

When needed, get a professional scapegoat to fire, less chance to see him again. And you can get the performance you want. Do you want an asshole who deserves it, or maybe you prefer a clueless bootlicker.

Of course, bosses will also be available to do the firing if you can't supply your own.

And while I am imagining things, I am sure that something like that exists in some form.

This is sounding like a Frankenstein's Monster built from a performance art troup and a reputation management company, maybe with a sprinkling of a staffing agency. It...sounds like something that might even have a proper niche if someone wanted to pursue it.

I look forward to the Launch HN.

Sound like I should finally do something useful with my scapegoat-consulting.com domain I purchased years ago. I intended to put up a prank site offering basically just that :)
