In outside sales so everyone is working remote. I get an email around 7PM that we are going to have a meeting tomorrow (on line of course) at 3PM. I had heard that a big layoff was coming. But why a call at 3PM instead of first thing in the morning if I was going to get laid off. Later that evening I get calls from friends about the 10AM meeting. I told them I never got a message about it, but I did about a 3PM meeting.
What they did was all the people they were laying off were on the 10AM meeting. It was half the total sales force. at the 3PM meeting for the survivors, they explained to us what was going on.

This just happened a month or so ago at my place of employment… except there were no invites. No meetings. It went more like
9am: Hey, where did my chat with so and so go? Friggin teams…
11am: Now the other one is missing? Wtf?
1pm: Outside TM: Hey… dumb question, but do you have as many people on your team as you did yesterday?
