Don't kid yourself that three good days make up for four days that you're totaly not there. The deal you are working now is pretty much the same that a lot of dads get when they get divorced.
What you're talking about is totaly illegal. The only thing a previous employer can legaly say about you when called for a reference is that you did or did not work there for a date range given to them. They can not comment on your work history or their opinion of you.
Rather than keep me from doing something how about having a robust undo function.
You just deleted a transaction. Oops, didn't mean to do that. Undo. Viola! Everything is back the way it was and no stupid "Are you really sure you want to do what you just said you wanted to do" prompts.
You want to keep it private so that other people (read non US friendly) don't get your source code and make computers that you can't crack. I doubt it has anything to do with securing the box.
No, it may be very truthful. I was in the exact situation described. The money wasn't coming in and there wasn't and REAL prospects for some coming in any time soon. I told my boss that he had three weeks to get me some one to train and show my documentation to. He never did get anyone because he wasn't going to pay the money to get someone that could do what I was doing.
Within a month of my leaving the company went belly up and I had to take care of the client clean up on my own. A lot of the people we did business with I developed a friendship with and I gave them my word that if I left they wouldn't be left high and dry. They are very appreciative for that and I feel like I did the right thing.

This was just cracking me up when I read it.
Accept that you are a procrastinator, and that you will not get anything done until the last minute. Then plan accordingly.
I wish I could moderate this guy as funny because I think some people won't get it and think he's just stupid.
