Sorry — didn’t mean to fire you!

Yahoo! CEO Marissa Mayer accidentally started swinging the ax last week, as bureaucratic snafus resulted in dozens of employees losing their jobs, sources told The Post’s James Covert.

“They put people on firing lists who they didn’t mean to — people who were lower on the performance scale but who weren’t meant to get fired,” an insider explained. “But no one told the managers, and then they had the conversations, and it was like, ‘Oops.’?”

The screwups — which may have affected as many as 30 employees, according to one source — didn’t go over well with some team supervisors, according to insiders.

She should Google "how to use firing lists" so this won't happen again.

Meh... Says they were on the lower end of performance. Maybe this will give them a reality check and push them to do better

She has been a complete disaster since day 1.

First she refuses to lay off Yahoo employees that serve no purpose -- by their own admission -- and reduce the size of the company to something more manageable. Now, she fires the wrong people.

Might have been her way of telling those at the bottom of the performance pole to get their arse in gear
