His enthusiasm and willingness to work “round the clock” was incredible. I was impressed. At first, my cynical side said it was just the overtime he wanted to make but we had so much work to do, everyone could take advantage of the extra overtime $$$ available. Bill was different. He was at his cube every single night, sometimes past midnight. And this went on and on and on.

Finally, someone got suspicious. Just what was going on that late at night each and every night? A quick check of the internet logs revealed all…really, it revealed WAY too much. “Bill” was surfing some of the more , how do you say, “risque” sex sites and well, enjoying himself just a little too much.

After firing “Bill”, we had the carpet cleaned and tried to forget the whole incident…but this was 10 years ago and obviously, I haven’t forgotten it yet. Y I K E S!!!

True story. Just life in the HR lane…

I was working for a national multi-billion dollar commercial bank.  Shortly after a merger with another bank, an Executive Vice President from the other bank was being investigated for lude, inappropriate behavior.  He was invited to the CEO’s office to discuss the allegations against him.  He presented a note from his doctor excusing his behavior due to his extraordinarily high level of testosterone!    (Yes, he was fired!)
