And I'll tell you why.

It's because wease wants to feel like a big man.

He doesn't want to get permission, he wants to feel like he is in charge. Wease doesn't want to ask permission to fire a woman. That's his right as a big man. Middle management with an ego, very dangerous. For his employees and for his employer.

Check yourself, wease!
Oh, fuck off. You don’t know anything about me, my job or my responsibilities. I don’t answer to you and owe you no fucking explanation whatsoever.

In which case, wease is in purgatory. How can he get relief from this?

I recently spent some time with an HR specialist at one of our plants and she said something about this type of purgatory/ busy work she had to do. Just sifting through people going through the motions to stay on unemployment. Granted, some folks have a hard time finding work - but what a sh!tshow.
