Several years ago, I worked under a boss who, whenever he was miffed that someone had missed their target, would call them over to his imposing office.
“Hey, I called you here because I noticed we paid your salary for the whole of the last quarter,” he would calmly start, gazing fixedly at you.
“Yes I was paid, why?” you’d go.
“What were we paying for?” he would go on, springing to his feet, the veins in his face dilating with fury.
