When I've had to fire people, I'd do it right at the start of their shift, and they'd be paid for the day. I've even covered a cab ride home for someone who got dropped off for work. Sucks that I had to pull the trigger, and I've been on the other side too, so I figured the least I could do was approach the situation with a bit of empathy.

Yeah that sounds perfect. I'd say that the established way is at the beginning of shift, but I'll say, the corporate way doesn't call for the rest of the day getting paid. Though perhaps it should be that way

It usually does, every company I've worked for pays the full day, which is law in Ontario.

Oh, I'm talking about the US. That seem really nice over here. Wish it were commonplace

This is the way to do it. Beginning of their shift and pay them for the day.
