I remember my dad talking about a secretary who was laid off. The company had to rehire her with back pay and a raise because no one could figure out her filing system. This was pre computers.

That's different then destroying something. I had a bunch of shortcuts set up to allow me to do my job quicker. I went on vacation and got a frantic phone call about how they could not figure out how to get certain information.

Told them to check in the overhead storage where they would find a ring binder that would give them step by step instructions. Yes, the binder was labeled.

I know of people who were let go that knew the systems inside and out who refused to be rehired and insisted on consultant contracts to fix the systems. One was such a critical system, the management team was telling HR to pay whatever fee the person wanted.
