What To Do After You Fire a Bad Sysadmin Or Developer

Esther Schindler writes "The job of dealing with an under-performing employee doesn't end when the culprit is shown the door. Everyone focuses on security tasks, after you fire the idiot, such as changing passwords, but that's just one part of the To Do list. More important, in the long run, is the cleanup job that needs to be done after you fire the turkey, looking for the hidden messes and security flaws the ex-employee may have left behind. Otherwise, you'll still be cleaning up the problems six months later."

Schooling you is not my job. People pay good money for that service, or they learn their lessons the long, slow, expensive hard way like the rest of us did.
