Default Feel badly

Our postal carrier came to the house to drop off a few packages yesterday and told me they were being fired. He said they didn’t tell them ahead of time because the post office didn’t want any of them to walk off the job early. I asked our carrier what he was going to do for work and he said he and his wife were both contract carriers and he had no idea what they were going to do since they had no advance notice. I felt so sorry for them both. It seems like such a double standard when employees have to give two weeks notice before quitting, yet employers don’t. ☹️
