I think I figured out exactly why he got fired.
He was crazy enough to run an adwords campaign for his own blog about Google?

Apparently there was an adwords campaign pointing to 99zeros, that used the word GOOGLE in the title
- which is not only not allowed by Google, they physically block you from doing it in the entry form upon submit.

Since he worked in the adsense divison, it is possible he overrode the block.

WebmasterWorld rules prevent me from posting the exact text of the ad,
if he did actually place it, I don't know what he was thinking!

(This ad ran on the 28th. Apparently he did not even finish that day.)
