Certainly clearly a troublesome employee given every chance to reform, should be dismissed. That is the employer's privilege.

The difference between an employer, employees and the tathagatha is that for the tathagatha, he doesn't have to put up with the troublesome employee but all the other people concerned do so its easy for him to say, i ignore him. An employer cannot ignore a troublesome employee and its not even easy for another employee to ignore them. So he should be dismissed.

The line you've given us to dissect or improve is actually the philosophy of the Utilitarians. Its infiltrated the public conscious so you probably got it from there. I mean most people are aware of this principle as a course of action even if they don't know where it comes from.

Utilitarianism is an ethical theory holding that the proper course of action is the one that maximizes the overall "happiness". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilitarianism

Anyway I don't know of a better solution to the problem.
