This article taught me nothing about managing people I can't fire and I was really hoping to take something from this. I've had this happen before (and it may happen again) so I'm disappointed that this just ending up being "if you want to fire someone, and your boss doesn't let you, you'll probably quit".

It taught me that some managers feel that they're absolutely 99% right when they feel like firing someone. Managers are so good and firing is so hard that managers only feel this way when it's 99% justified.
