When a decision is made to fire someone, it usually means that it's too late to resolve the conflicts, so a meeting would have been pointless. When Felder learned of his dismissal, the first thing he did was call Don. When he couldn't reach Don, he called Glenn and Glenn took the call. By Felder's own account, he begged for his job back. But, as I noted, it was too late by then. If you are interested in more details, you should read up on the discussions in that thread and compare it to his book.
