Pardon me, but...
You sound like a right bastard of an employee.

From what I hear, as far as your previous employer is concerned, their story is this:

"We (being a small company) rely heavily on all of our employees - when one of them wasn't doing their part, we had to let them go. It was unfortunately when they were on vacation, but it was necessary, business being what it is. He got another job a few weeks later, so it must not have been too terrible for him.

"A few years later, we decide to give the man a second chance. Proving that no good deed goes unpunished, he proceeds not only to do the same shitty job he did before, but abruptly quit, screwing us out of one of our biggest clients to boot."

You saying "that showed 'em!" for what looks like you screwing them over - twice! - just makes you look like even more of a bastard.

But that's just what I got out of what you said. I might be missing the important bits where they're truly heartless bastards.
