Hiring? or Firing?
nmpilot. It does not mean anything. Back in the 80s I was given an airline ticket by a major US bank to fly to a major US city, dined and told I was hired and to report to HR in the morning. Woke up in my hotel room (paid for by the bank), turned on the TV only to hear the bank had gone "belly up". I checked out and jumped on the first flight before they could seize my return ticket or get me to pay the hotel bill. Business is business and frequently the masses know nothing until it is all over.
