The Supervisor: Your company is reducing the workforce and you must dismiss one of your engineers. You have narrowed the choice to T.J. , an older employee who has been coasting for years, but who is capable of outstanding performance, and Morgan, a new employee who tries his best but who almost certainly will never perform at the same level as T.J. who would you let go? Discuss.

Solution

I would continue with Morgan and give pinkslip to T.J.

There are several reasons behind it -

- Morgan is younger to T.J. so he can serve company for a longer period.

- Morgan tries his best and that\'s what matters. May be after some time luck will start favouring him and Morgan will deliver output whilist T.J. is capable but doesn\'t perform.

- Any invetment made by company on Morgan\'s capacity building will deliver result for long-term since he is young and has many years of service left in him.
