I'll Teach You, Marianne.

When Aaron arrived at the top floor of the Connery Corporation building, all the staff were already busy, things seemed normal as usual, and Aaron just smiled faintly when he saw the staff looked to be working very hard. He ignored the greetings from the staff who saw him coming and continued walking towards his private office where currently a staff from the human resources department was waiting for him with a smart tablet containing the employee data.

"Sir..."

"Come in."

Aaron immediately cut off the words of one of his staff coldly as he walked into the office that had just been opened by Daniel.

"Yes sir," replied the HRD staff briefly.

Daniel, who was still at the door, then let the HRD staff in first. After the middle-aged woman entered, Daniel finally came in and closed the door to Aaron's office from the inside.

"Look at the CCTV footage," said Aaron, directly speaking to the HRD staff who had just stood in front of him.

"Yes, sir, I will..."

"Geez, don't be so cruel, Boss. Let the lady sit down first, please sit down Madam..."

"Yolanda, my name is Yolanda, Mr. Daniel." The HRD staff reintroduced himself to Daniel.

"Ah yes, Mrs. Yolanda. Please sit down, you will have a lot of work so I don't think it will be very comfortable if you stand," said Daniel again, pulling a chair in front of Aaron and inviting the middle-aged woman to sit down.

From his seat, Aaron didn't say anything. He was just silent when he saw Daniel interrupt the order he gave to the HRD staff he had called, but he couldn't do anything. Since what Daniel was doing was right this time, he couldn't possibly be that cruel to a woman who was twice his age to stay standing while working on the orders he was about to give.

Shortly after the woman sat down, she then looked at the monitor screen shown by Aaron. As a staff of the human resources department, it was not difficult for her to recognize the people who were chatting while standing casually on the balcony enjoying their coffee while working hours were still going on. Mrs. Yolanda, who has been working as HRD staff for more than 20 years, immediately understood the reason to the sudden meeting this time with the CEO. Therefore, she immediately noted down the names that appeared on the monitor screen without being instructed.

"These are the names of the people who were caught on camera relaxing, sir," said Mrs. Yolanda to Aaron while handing over the names of about 20 people she managed to identify.

"Hmmm good, are they the ones who often commit this offense, Madam? Don't you need to check the other recordings?" Aaron asked flatly.

"From the 3 CCTV footages on different days that you showed me earlier, 20 people always seem to make the same mistake. So I'm sure for the other footage they will also be seen, because from the three recordings they all made the fatal mistakes, sir. So it seems we don't need to check the other CCTV footage," answered Mrs. Yolanda firmly.

"Okay, prepare a letter of dismissal for them and don't forget to include severance pay based on the length of time they have worked in this company. I don't want to be labeled as a cruel-hearted leader who does not give the rights to employees who are fired for making mistakes," added Aaron again.

Mrs. Yolanda immediately responded to the orders given by the CEO. Not long after that, she rushed to leave Aaron's room to carry out the orders she had just received. What Aaron did was in no way violated the contract made with the staff who were about to be fired, because the staff had all made the same mistake successively by relaxing during working hours which was a fatal mistake for an employee in any company. And actually, unbeknownst to everyone, Aaron had given them the opportunity to change many times. However, they never realized that and keep repeating the same mistakes, so Aaron's patience ran out and he intended to immediately expel them today so as not to become an example for other employees.

"Come out, Daniel, I need to talk to all of them," Aaron said quietly when he saw Mrs. Yolanda had left her room.

"Yes Boss." Daniel answered curtly.

Aaron walked with firm steps. The coat he was wearing had been removed, leaving behind a white shirt with rolled up sleeves to the elbows with the top two buttons also undone. Aaron's appearance like that would be very intimidating to the male staff, but not to the female staff. The women certainly wouldn't be able to blink when they saw the CEO dressed like that and it was proven now, where at this time all the staff who were on the same floor with him had been called by him and were standing around in front of him, including Marissa and Kimberly Henderson, who couldn't take their eyes off at all from Aaron.

"I'm sure all of you must be confused because I suddenly asked for you all to gather here. But because I'm not a person who likes small talk, so I'll just get to the point of the purpose of this impromptu meeting. On this paper, there are 20 names of the listed staff, and starting today, these 20 people will leave our company because I feel they are no longer competent to work at Connery Corporation. Perhaps they have lost interest or are not comfortable with our company environment. I'm sure the 20 people from the names listed on this paper are no longer part of the Connery Corporation after I finished speaking. The reason why they are not part of the Connery Corporation is because they all committed very despicable acts which I hate so much. All this time I may seem silent and do not pay attention to you. But all of that is wrong, because every move in this company will be immediately seen by me. The CCTV footage in this company is directly connected to my cell phone and other gadgets, so wherever I go, I can see and check the state of the office. Because it is very, very sad when 20 staff members who are considered competent and have high positions actually do something very disgraceful by relaxing during working hours, chatting here and there and spending time that could have been used to work productively. I feel very sorry for the chefs who are on the 3rd floor. They all work really hard to prepare food for all of us, Connery Corporation employees, very well. However, it turned out that the results of their work were wasted by 20 people who did not deserve to enjoy their hard work. Therefore, from this moment on, I emphasize to all of you, if anyone makes the same mistake as these 20 people, don't blame me if at that time I will immediately fire him. Because believe me, there are still many people who want to join Connery Corporation. As for the 20 people who will leave today, I want to say to all of you that wherever you work in the future, I hope you change your habits. Believe me, your actions are not very commendable. You are stealing work hours for personal gain and it is very unethical for seniors like you, so I ask that other staff can learn a lesson from this so as not to repeat the same mistake. Because, as I said earlier, that I'm not going to mess around, Connery Corporation doesn't tolerate that anymore. So for those of you who still want to work in this company, follow all the rules and carry out the orders written in the company regulations, because so far I have never demanded more from you. But if you are not willing to follow the rules, the door of the Connery Corporation is always open to anyone who wants to leave this company," said Aaron at length, with a loud voice boomed. And this was the first time he talk like that in front of all the staff.

After Aaron spoke like that, Daniel then gave the paper he had been holding since a few minutes ago to the closest staff who stood next to him. Suddenly, after the paper was held by one staff, the other staff immediately came to him and there was a commotion for a while when several staff whose names were written on the paper seeing their names. They were very shocked because they were fired immediately.

Aaron who was angry decided to return to his office, leaving Daniel who was now surrounded by staff who couldn't accept to be fired. They still felt they had done nothing wrong. Because they were annoyed, Daniel finally showed the CCTV record from Aaron's smart tablet. Suddenly, the fired staff couldn't say anything but regret, which always came last after everything had happened.
