I wish I had overcooked fish in the Microwave at work. :D

1) change his/her ability to access the system from outside the work place. (if that is even possible)

2) Fire him/her while they are away from work.

3) Allow them to come to work to get their shit under escort by the Enforcers (at least that is the way they do it on TV).

4) Cut their break line while they are picking up their shit.

Kidnap their dog and then send them a note with one of its toenails informing them that they better be on their best behavior or another toenail will be showing up in the mail.

Set up a fake account for them on Face Book, including the most intimate details you can glean from his personnel file. Have him friend all the local cop shops, the FBI, CIA, and Homeland Security. E-mail him his new FB home page link.

Move your entire business to another city and get a brand new computer system while you're at it. Write it all off as the cost of doing business.

OK. I'll go away now.

How many of those are you considering using regarding the Bates? :D

This is kind of a hell situation. You need to hire someone to come in and lock everything down before giving this person the slightest inkling that they are being let go. This will be very expensive. I can't even imagine how you could bring someone in, have your IT person cooperate fully and not tip him off that he's a short-timer.

The kings of yore took care of such situations by marrying the IT guys daughter. WIN WIN

Heh heh.

I might've wished that the chicken wrap I'd left behind was shrimp instead...but I don't think the boss ever used the fridge, so the wrong people would have been affected.

As it was, the wrap was probably a tasty shade of green-blue by the time that fridge got cleaned out.
