Manager Sends Insane Email After Employee Passes, Coworkers Can’t Grieve on Company Time Because the Deceased “Wouldn’t Have Wanted Productivity to Slide”

When u/comrade-linux's friend received this email from their company's management they were astounded. Their coworker 'Red' had recently passed away and the team, who was close to their coworker, was experiencing loss and grieving.

Clearly, the company is devastated by the loss of their "family member". Not because of the reasons you might be expecting though. Not because they were a unique human and an individual with their own values. No, this company is just concerned with the fact that they have lost one of their highest sales earners and how their coworker's grieving might affect their productivity.

It's pretty safe to say that this message goes beyond just being simply tone-deaf and strays into 'sociopathic' and beyond.
