How do you know when it’s time to let someone go?

Being the owner of a growing salon, I have learned to pray and ask God to remove them. I am not confrontational, so I like a smooth transition in any situation. It was the disturbance of the atmosphere and my clients who shared their input regarding how their experience had been interrupted. I need my clients over needing a fully staffed salon, so I release 3 stylists simultaneously. It has not been easy in losing that revenue, yet provision has been made.
