The only part that bothered me here was:<p>&quot;I had great delight in telling them I knew exactly why the bill was so large and had they not made me redundant they would have not blown the whole year&#x27;s IT investment budget in a single month,” James recalls. “Even better, they had gone over the cancellation period, locking them into a year&#x27;s contract.”<p>I&#x27;d have preferred him to complain about how he was prevented from doing any knowledge transfer&#x2F;communication.  The above implies he&#x27;d not have told them regardless, just because they were firing him.
