J Crew executive seemingly taunts fired employees

There are some classy ways to handle firing employees – this just might not be one of them.

Soon after personally delivering the bad news to some J. Crew employees being laid off, the clothier’s vice president of men’s merchandising took to Instagram to post celebratory photos, seemingly mocking those who were fired, according to The New York Post.

The posts in question, which have since been removed, feature VP Alejandro Rhett bar-hopping with other employees in New York and hoisting drinks in celebratory poses, reports The Post. Some feature hashtags like "#hungergames," and "#maytheoddsbeeverinyourfavor," appearing to jokingly refer to the blockbuster Jennifer Lawrence series in which teens are forced to fight to the death.
