Soooo...a Tuesday on I-12?

Yep, he could have been a top 10% performer and those typically come with top 10% wages, benefits, and long-term liabilities. The company was probably just looking for any reason to let him go so they could "restructure" (i.e., eliminate his position) and replace him with more contractors who they don't have to pay FICA or benefits for. 2 new contractors to replace the 1 full-time employee and none of the additional costs. This has been a noted trend, particularly since the pandemic.
