    Just post a made up CV on jobserve / cwjobs in his name and his bosses direct line.

    The calls will come soon enough.

      Leaving speech, "I'd like to say I've enjoyed working here.......but I haven't"

      or

      "I can honestly say you are some of the people I have worked with"
      The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

      But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

        Sign him up (using a photo of a much more handsome chap nicked from a google images search) to an escort agency. Give his secretary's number or his direct dial as the main contact. Be creative in his description of himself. Make it sordid.

          Get your timesheet signed at 1pm. Travel home early and open a beer, and send off your invoice.

          Forget about your boss; he is (or was) a knob. Remember you are a contractor.

            WHS

            If there's one blessing that comes from being a contractor, it's that you can walk away.

            If you're letting it get to you you're missing the point.

              Just be glad you're not him. He is his own punishment.

                Thanks for the suggestions, I know you're right when you say I should forget about him but.... This guy has bullied people in the past and I was warned he would try to do the same to me so feck him he deserves it! Fake CV or the escort agency thing sounds good, I may sign him up for a few S&M sites or something.

                BTW he is a David Brent sort of character but without the comedy.

In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                  You know how you should never give references before an offer? He's the exception.

                  With every agent you speak to, make it clear you are leaving a vacancy behind. Have him bombarded with as many agents as possible ringing him up trying to place your replacement. He'll get nothing done for weeks.

                    When going for your next contract put him down as a reference stating to the agency that they are always looking for contractors so he keeps getting rung up by Del boy and his mates all day.

                      My favourite is to tell someone I think is a complete waste of space in full hearing of their subordinates in an organisation;

                      'I'd just like to mention something which I know others have been very reluctant to tell you. And that is whatever mouth wash you use in the morning doesnt cover up your severe bad breath. Washes and pills mat seem to freshen your breath but I have to be honest and say by 9.00am, your breath has neutralised them and the halitosis is very overpowering. Its quite severe and I'd suggest a change of dentist seeing as he hasnt picked it up yet'!

                      Then, walk away before they can say anything.
