What would you do?

[Dunefar]

This is a hypothetical scenario I read about. It's an interesting, chewy question that I think is worth asking. It goes as follows:

You are accidentally sent  a confidential email at work. This email states your boss is about to be laid off. Further, you are aware your boss is planning to close on a new house before the layoff date. What do you do?

[Ranmilia]

Go to the person who sent the email, tell them you received it by mistake, tell them about your boss's house plans and ask them to straighten things out with the poor guy so he doesn't screw himself financially.  Seems simple enough.

Warn the boss indirectly before the fact, tell him directly after.  Though I can honestly there are bosses who I'd just laugh and delete the email for, but none I've had any time recently.

I don't think I've ever had a boss who I wouldn't laugh in their face under these circumstances.

[Shale]

Tell them.

I don't think I've ever had a boss who I wouldn't laugh in their face under these circumstances.

[NotMiki]

Tell 'em.

[metroid composite]

I've had some pretty fantastic bosses, so...tell 'em and ask what company they're moving to so that I can follow 'em.

[Grefter]

Nothing, but only because I am lazy.
