Get this: I once fired a guy for poor performance and he later sued me and the company for wrongful termination (he lost). Shortly thereafter, he not only used me as a reference, but later re-applied to my company for a similar job!
BTW, when I was called for a reference by prospective employers, I told them nothing about performance, and got a lot of heat from them for holding back. Ironically, one of the companies that pressured me had the same policy of not providing performance info for former employees.
