Step 1: Ditch the Clipboard
Before you do anything else, press 9 to unequip the Management Clipboard. If you try to talk to a worker while holding it, all you'll get are assignment menus. You can’t fire anyone while you’re technically "on the clock."
Step 2: Talk to the Employee
Walk up to the worker you want to fire.
Press E to talk to them (without the clipboard equipped).
A dialogue menu should pop up.
Choose the option that ends their employment.
Confirm, and they’ll walk off your property.
You’ll stop paying their daily wages immediately. They’ll also stop hogging your beds and doing absolutely nothing.

If the employee has mysteriously vanished (sometimes they wander off), check the property thoroughly. If they’re truly gone, you may need to rehire a new one to replace them — the game doesn’t let you officially fire someone who isn’t physically present.
Final Blurb
Think of firing in Schedule 1 like letting a roommate go: no clipboard, no chaos, just a calm "please leave." And if that fails? Well, some players say headshots work, but let’s stick to the professional route... for now.
