The cat murdering whistler
My former boss once described how he had suffocated his cat to "put it out of its misery" because apparently the feline was on its way out and he didn't want to spend the money to have the vet do it. I'm guessing he told us as some sort of twisted method of instilling fear in his employees, but we just told him that it was a terrible story.

He was a fat, repugnant ginger shit of a man and I have no idea why anyone ever agreed to marry him, let alone have children with him. He would always whistle, though, so you could tell he was coming down the hall. Also, he went into a rage if anyone ever described him with the term "jolly."

One of my favorite moments working there was when he called my co-worker a pussy and then we all had to talk to the HR woman about the incident. The result was a company meeting where HE told all of US that we had to watch our mouths. Wow. Fuck that guy.

Glad to be out of there and in my new place of employ. Easily one of the best work experiences I've ever had. And I actually like my current boss!
