Well that brings back memories. This same guy had a habit of walking 
into my office and thrusting s sheet pf apper at me. Invariably it was 
an email he'd printed out.  Sometimes he'd have forwarded the email to 
me, sometimes he would not have.

One of my all time favorites from that job was when I wanted to get rid 
of someone and he didn't. His response to, "She can't perform the 
functions of her position" was, "We don't judge people by their 
performance here."

He won many arguments by simply stunning me into silence.
