As a matter of logic, lateral quitters will tend to be ''good'' employees that you didn’t want to leave. [[Line manager]]s have a remarkable facility, after the fact, for persuading their superiors, that this is not the case, but it stands to reason: if people leave who you wanted to leave anyway, you should have ''made'' them leave. Employment should not, however much human resources dogma implies otherwise, be a hostage situation. Either way.
