Ugh. I knew I'd be in this situation at some point. We have to make some staffing reductions and need to lay off some folks. One is my relative - not immediate, but a degree away from a cousin. I know my fam will not be happy about it, but it needs to be done and they are the appropriate person based on skills, how well they fit with the team, etc. It's the best thing for the business, but it is just going to stink as they are a good person, but best one to let go right now. Any sage advice? (other than not to have hired them in the first place!)
