I highly doubt it's procedure to cut those cards off immediately like that with bills still left to be paid. Also, I don't think that has been a huge problem with some staffer going out and blowing money on a CC that he would most definitely have to pay back anyways. They normally have other business to conclude afterwards that need funding. Cutting them off the night off is stupid. No two ways about it.

Well, your last day wouldn't be your last day if there were still loose ends to tie up, bills still left to be paid. I mean, whos going to clean up? They just leaving all the stuff there?

No.

Getting a cab ride home is not a loose end and it actually sounds like he was done and going home. Ask my buddy how it feels to toss an employee the keys to his vet to run an erran and the person never came back. Couldn't press charges because he gave her the keys to use his car.
