I don't think so.
When I got laid off at the RNC two days after the '96 elections, we got marched one by one into the boss's office. Boss was there with a guy from HR. His exact words were, "This is not a reflection of your performance and we hate to do this." We were allowed to take our time cleaning out our desks, I was given a case of J&B scotch to take home and boss said we were all welcome to come into the office anytime we needed to use computers or fax machines to send out resumes. And they honored that too. They were pretty cool about it. But then again, Cap. Hill is a very small place and you need to treat people right because you 100% will be seeing them again in other jobs.
The only time I've seen people get escorted out was when they were fired for cause or had just given notice and were going to work for a competitor.
