So my boss came in today and makes a big scene saying such-and-such person is "A-1" priority (which he just made up on the spot -thats not even a thing) and tell the whole team he wants all city surveillance cams routed through our room to find the guy and a full work-up on the guy's past. He stats rattling off ridiculous stuff he wants yelling out meaningless garbage like he wants to know the target's 2nd grade gym teacher (everyone here knows he doesn't know the first thing about tracking a person down from stuff like that).
So he walks by my desk and Alt-F4s my browser window while hes talking as if he would even know if I'm doing work-related stuff and slaps a paper map on the wall that we thought he had put up there a long time ago as a novelty or decoration and tells us he wants all the location data up there. I don't even know what hes asking for about that last bit. Thumb tacks I guess? Color coded thumb tacks and maybe post-its?

If you have ever wanted to see the quintessential manager that did not communicate with his staff or know how to manage in any respect you should meet this guy.
gently caress.

Sorry about the venting.
Any of you guys have to put up with stuff like this?

She points a gun at us under the desk every time we sign in like "Yeah right this time one of us is wearing an utterly flawless mask to infiltrate an organization like this and yet is too inept to be able to take out a lady with no combat experience good thinking im so scared. Gee I hope my identity checks out." Totally useless.

I get it now, OP is talking in riddles. Which is typical for the industry. His boss came in still drunk from the night before and made a pass at him

He was invited to dinner at a steak restaurant.
Where said boss wants to get to know him. Followed by a night of vigorous (gym teacher) homosexual sex. He indicted that he wanted the encounter to be videotaped so he could analyze it later and go over performance issues. Ect

He seemed to be in higher spirits when he exited than when he entered
