Even a white lie may help here. For example: "The company is eliminating your position. It has nothing to do with your performance, which has been excellent/good/satisfactory over the past X years." | |

Beyond the general "emotional" aspect, there is great shame in losing your work, and therefore a huge part of yourself. | |
