U R Fired: Government Edition
Reuters reports that firing by text message, the growing use of which we've chronicled here and here, has reached the political sphere:
Swaziland's King Mswati fired former Prime Minister Sibusiso Dlamini last year via a text message on his cellphone, enraged local lawmakers say. ... "If a loyalist Sibusiso could be kicked out so rudely, it says a lot about palace attitudes towards those who serve them," one Mbabane attorney said.
