You can’t ask someone to work for free.
Especially after you have already fired them. However, it seems many bosses do not understand this simple fact and will ask their former employees for a ‘favor’ when they have been nothing but rude and entitled the whole time that particular employee worked under them.
They should realize that people only do favors for others they actually like. And once you have fired someone, they are under no obligation to listen to your nonsense. This is one such story. To be honest, many higher uppers do this and it is the worst. Although it means you do get a chance to rub it in their faces so maybe it is a good thing after all.

You might think you have heard all the story but it has some juicy details.
Things were going okay for the most part except the two people who were a pain in the a** to work with.
He was just using them to do all the work for him.
Or perhaps she is doing the same thing and taking advantage of your kindness.
And then they finally realized why they were fighting all the time.
And they hadn’t told anyone about this.
However, things start getting aq bit better for him as he stops working with the two.
But as we all know, that is when the pandemic hit, and everyone had to work from home.
This was probably the time to hang up the phone but they didn’t.
So of course this ‘secret’ got out.
After everyone is fired, they have the gall to phone him and ask him to work for free.
You’ll hopefully find work soon enough at a much better place.
Had a very similar event happen in college! Was working at Pier1 at the time and had let my store manager know I was leaving after winter finals to go home for Christmas. He said I couldn’t do that as I was scheduled Christmas eve and the day after Christmas.
Well, I quit on the spot as I wasn’t missing Christmas for a retail job and only had one semester left till graduation and had a paid internship starting a few weeks later. Well about a month later I get a call from the store and it was the store manager asking if I could come in as a bunch of people called off and I laughed and told him I quit a month ago but would come in for double the min wage at the time and he hung up on me! –itsfish20
As I said before, favors do not come for free.
From the way you talked about her, she doesn’t have any to speak of.
They just have to ruin something good and then whine about it later.
Exactly the way to stick it to someone.
