Today, I received a list of employee names who were losing their jobs and I had to remove them from the system as I work for IT. I was on the list. That's right. My last responsibility as an employee was removing myself from the system for security reasons. FML

rm -rf / is a command, when run as root (the superuser), that will delete all the files on a system that's writable

as far as the first command goes on (#44), it overwrites the hard drive with random data, destroying the data

All these calls for petty vengeance are a little distressing. I hope the poster had stronger morals than to screw up the company's system. Other people acting like jerks isn't an excuse to become one yourself. Maybe honor and common decency are more important than screwing up other people's lives because you got fired?

Oh #47 petty vengeance? People go into work to put a roof over their heads and feed their kids having their intelligence and skills milked from them in factory farm cubicles for crap wages while the CEO tests his new helicopter and forgets how to treat the people who make the company run (propping up his fat cat ass at the top) with basic respect. Haven't you ever heard fight fire with fire?

#48 Psh, like the honor and common decency that the company didn't have to properly tell him of the termination of his employment? An eye for an eye usually isn't the best thing to do, but in this case, i support it.
