Why did they hire him in the first place anyways? Affirmative action hire maybe? Probably affirmative action, but also probably because most companies don't give references any more - just indisputable facts - dates of employment and attendance records. If a company gives a bad recommendation, the job applicant will sue them. If a company gives a good recommendation and the employee turns out to be nuts, the new company will sue the old company. This guy probably sent his resume and 3 good pieces of film of him (probably the only 3 good ones out of 500) and got hired.
