I worked for a guy who had a habit of refusing to pay people for work they did. All the other developers has logic bombs in the code.

  Also I looked at the thread. One person advised him to change the root password and reboot the server if he couldn't log in. One of the logic bombs was triggered on reboot. I knew it was happening when they rebooted the server, but I couldn't find the script that did it. I wound up moving the database and code to another server.

  Even though I've worked for some total jerks over the years, I could never be tempted to insert a logic bomb. I did get blamed for one once after I left a particularly bad gig - they deleted "some old files" - the SVN repo - from an old server and lost anything that wasn't a year-old+ checkout on another developer's machine. But this was the same shop that disabled SQL Server transaction logs and backups since they ran out of disk on their web server.
