They fired you, tell them good luck with the phone. Whole lot of dumb in this thread. Are they going to fire you again if you don't? Please.

no you'll probably get arrested for theft (likely a felony) and possibly sued (possibly for trade secrets claims)

Unless you did something illegal on the phone, I wouldn't worry about it. There's also nothing illegal about you surfing porn on their phone although that is blocked I'm sure. They can fire you for it but you haven't done anything illegal. Unless you were hooking up for drugs or looking at child porn maybe. But short of that, there really isn't a damn thing they can do.

That's a weak arse IT department. Normally we just remotely wipe the device.

Can an iPhone be wiped clean without knowing the password? If not, you've essentially ruined a company owned asset

Assuming any of this is real. The employer should have been more strategic in fireing him and allowing him to pick his own password for the phone.

You are doing this wrong.

Go download literally the maximum amount of legal porn you can fit in there.

Then wipe all of your personal info.

Then give them the phone loaded with porn with the password to unlock it.

Why would you put a password on a work phone.

Why were you terminated?

Had there been any previous verbal counseling or disciplinary documentation prior to separation?

What concerns do you have with providing password to your phone? What information is still on there?

Does not matter in LA. I can fire you with no warning because I don't like your shirt, and you can't do anything about it

yeah..NO judge would throw you in jail for contempt for that well hidden lie


Maybe he changed his password last night after texting/calling and doesn't remember the new password?

You'd be hard pressed to prove him wrong.
