[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did they actually say "manage out"? Because that term specifically means making the person quit / move on, not firing them.

I'm not saying that you [i]should [/i]make these employees miserable until they leave voluntarily -- but that is what the term typically means. Nag and document and warn and take away flexibilities and generally be terrible = managing people out. 
Setting them up for a retirement or promotion elsewhere also falls in this category, but is usually used for too-expensive high performers.[/quote]

+1. They want you to make these folks lives miserable so they quit. If they were going to fire them, they would already done so.[/quote]

Not to get too meta but is it possible that this is a game within a game? Put another way, maybe the company is trying to make the OP's life miserable that that they quit.

Sometimes it's best just to take the loss and move on to the next job and hope for a more function organization.[/quote]
