"What I'm saying is that relying on crazy people to not go crazy is not a good data loss prevention strategy." Upvoted for exactitude. Also, it's worth remembering that virtually no one hires already disgruntled employees. That's not to excuse anything that the truly disgruntled do to retaliate. But it does suggest that an abusive employer represents a risk to everyone relying on their 'teams'. EDIT: I don't think the pilot was retaliating, by the way. What he was subject to is a different kind of abuse. Separately, when two parties are in a fight, it's always worth remembering who started it. If blame needs to be shared, and it's unfair to share it evenly, the unprovoked aggressor deserves a special measure of approbation. Typically, this is the party with more power, not less, for the simple reason that it's a lot harder to abuse a lack of trust and authority.
