'Don't mess with the IT guy': Disgruntled IT worker exports detailed report of all workers' unpaid overtime and hands it to a lawyer

It's always a good idea to make sure you're not messing with the guy who has access to all of the company's information at his fingertips… Otherwise, things could go pretty poorly for you—if the dozens of stories online on the subject are anything to go off of. This went doubly when that guy was also the one who implemented an all-encompassing Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software that is vital to the organization's continued functioning and existence, which he alone knows how to service and handle.

This was the situation at hand for this IT guy who worked as an IT specialist for a distribution company. After modernizing the company's software with the only other member of the IT department, the IT guy found himself alone on the team as the unreasonable demands from their employer escalated and drove their teammate to quit. After continued broken promises and refusals for proper compensation, the IT guy had also had enough, deciding to leave the company… But not before loading a detailed report of all the other employees' unpaid overtime hours, which conveniently ended up in the hands of an employment lawyer.
