Yes, it is just the two of us.

This. If your company has any sense, they won't fire anyone without a witness.

Small companies sometimes aren't even aware of proper protocol.

Is that a law in DC? My sister was let go by her boss in a 1-on-1 lunch in another state. Very small company and still had to go back and handle HR stuff, but she was given her notice at lunch.

Can a waiter be a witness?

There are between 13-15 people. He is kind of my direct boss, there is really no-one in between though there are people closer to him, if that makes sense.

We don't talk often, but he knows me pretty well. I am pretty sure he likes me, but I am sure that wouldn't stop him from firing me if business sense dictated it.

Yikes, let us know what happens! I hope it's not what you suspect.

Jerry McGuire got fired over lunch. My whole law firm is going to lunch today with the boss. We're not getting fired - he just likes to do lunches sometimes.

^wouldn't

How small? I've never heard of a CEO doing something like that--it would have to be REALLY small. Nor could I imagine someone doing that over lunch, that seems odd a well.

How well do you know him? Maybe he wants to meet you, discuss a different position, any number of things. Normally it's your direct boss and HR that do that sort of thing.

My boss (previous ones included) would waste time with a lunch. I think you'll be fine.

Eek, it's possible. It could also be a "catching up" sort of thing.

I work at a satellite (DC) office. Our CEO (we are a small company) is visiting and has scheduled a lunch with me. How common is it to get fired over lunch?

I haven't gotten any complaints re: my work and have gotten no warning signs; however, I haven't had much work to do for quite some time. The sales are slow and we are in the red. I have specialized skills that nobody else in the company has, but I am no more sure they are worth it to the company.
