In recent years, I had this boss who as he aged, became obsessed with his family history. He kept huge scrapbooks and photo albums and would try to get us into his office to discuss all this. On one hand, we liked him and felt sorry for him because we knew he was lonely; on the other hand, you could get stuck in there for over an hour as he recounted the glory days of the "Smiths".
Then some of the more evil employees started setting each other up. Say, I would come in and the cop on duty might yell down the hall: "Mr. Smith! Dr. Carnation is here and she wants to hear your latest finds on the Smith historyyyy!" and I would accidentally on purpose kick the cop's wastebasket over as I stalked down the hall, sure to be victimized again.
Would you believe that some employees would climb into their windows in the morning to avoid him?
