Wow! This news from Captain’s Corner is a big disappointment in the “treating people like persons” department. Yesterday, ”  RadioShack Corp. notified about 400 workers by e-mail that they were being dismissed immediately as part of planned job cuts” (from Globe and Mail). This is certainly one way to use technology to dehumanize people.

Captain’s Quarter wonders, “If this is how they treat their employees, imagine what Radio Shack thinks of their customers.”
