And, as I posted there, laying this guy off was a smart move.

Obviously if what he says is true he's not their biggest problem and they need to fix what is, but he's clearly a lost cause to them. He'll never buy into the company line. He'll always be miffed and always complain and always drag those around him down. He needs a fresh start and the opportunity to go somewhere that he's not cancer. His relationship with is employer was damaged beyond repair.

Companies are often too slow to get rid of people like this. Sports are a little better - look how improved the Giants were after getting rid of Tiki Barber (and, arguably Jeremy Shockey.) Talented guys that just sucked in the locker room and needed a new start.

A few posts echo this:

This is exaclty why Jeff was terminated as of 9:00 this morning. PST
He was nothing more than a drama queen at home and on the job. Always arguing and fighting with his coworkers, half the time in a drug induced rage.
Now he had to just take it one step further and post this anonymous blog thinking that the powers that be would not find out about it. Too bad , so sad , Jeff.
We had a good run, but your days of annoying your fellow co-workers and never completing a job you started, are now over. Good bye, my friend.

If this who I think it is, this ‘artist’ is in the next round of layoffs because he is a lazy shit who never actually did his job and instead got caught with porn multiple times on his comp.
