This story resonated with me. Its about Ron Avitzur at Apple Computers who was let go in 1993, but decided his work with them was not complete so he kept showing up for work, unpaid and occupied unused office space. His swipe card still worked to get in the building. We're talking months and months here. He was assisted by other legitimate Apple employees who were sympathetic, and they leant their technical expertise to his projects. He paid sub contractors out of his own pocket. Eventually when the software was complete it was shipped out on millions of Mac computers. Apple started paying him again.

It reminded me of a film made in the 70s called Bartleby where the employee gets fired but still shows up for work. He won't go away. Unfortunately this one has a much sadder outcome as the worker is mentally ill, ends up in hospital and fades away.

I removed the handy dandy country site counter as it was, well, not working. The site where you get the code seems to be kaput too so I suspect they are on holiday.
