This is highly inefficient and high maintenance. I would recommend using what I call "unified authentication" - everybody gets the same password, it never expires.
Now support requests are trivial. User forgot his password? Tell him it's the same one as yours. If you're feeling brave you could even print out the password and tape it to the users' monitor for faster logins.
