Anyone interested in working on this puzzle?

Puzzle 19: You're fired!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
John and Joan, who both enjoyed their work, were given surprises one morning. John was told that he was being laid off that week because there was no further work for him. Joan was told that she was being promoted and would get a pay raise. Joan cried for the rest of the day, while John laughed.

Why?

John was a prep chef and spent his days cutting onions, etc. Joan was promoted to that position upon John's departure. Close..

John was researching the biological effects of nitrous oxide and Joan was researching the biological effects of onions when John was laid off and Joan was promoted.

Of course, that's just a guess.
