"Because I am in IT, for some reason I must make myself available weeks or months after the fact to provide passwords."
No, but if your management or your customer directs you to grant access while you are still employed you are required to do so regardless of your opinion of their technical expertise. You might take pride in your network but guess what. It's not YOUR network. You're just paid to maintain it. Just document the access request to cover your rear and do what you're told.
If they screw up the system, you are not obligated to restore it if you wish to resign or have already been fired. You already gave the them access they need to fix it themselves or hire someone else.
I would be happier if things like mounting digital cameras worked consistently from one release to the next without scouring the web looking for the latest hoop to jump through. Yes I can find the answer and make it work but a lot of potential converts will give up and pop the Windows 7 install disk in.
