On an industry specific open access website.
Basically our full accounts list up for sale.
Probably nothing in his employment contract and he is long gone , but even so.....
Stinks to my mind.
Never did like him and was sure he had a C habit

Surprised contract doesn't cover it.

Solicitors letter will probably frighten him off.

Depends on what his exit agreement was i guess.
I take it that it's beer related?

Not if it isn't/wasn't covered by his contract.

Fire up the Bombers...!

I think I remember him from the documentary! Was he in it?

Oh and can you not contact whoever controls the website to get them to remove it?

Yep , beer related . Abit more than just a list of pubs though.
Once, years ago, caught him making imaginary sales calls to thin air. Pulled out the phone jack from the wall and he just kept on having an imaginary conversation. In front of the then boss .
I. Prop or not , still stinks like a 3 day old mackeral.

Oh Yes Anna , well remembered . Yes , that prize plonker.

Pretty much all employment contracts prevent you from divulging commercially sensitive information. Either way, I'd get your company lawyer to write to him and threaten legal action even if you don't intend to go down that route.

Interesting this. Before my previous company implemented saleswomen I asked the SD if it was risky all this being online with just username and password stopping anyone from accessing our customer data. He said, that as account managers we should all have good enough relationships with our customers and that no outsider trying to use that information should be a threat.
