If he said all these things with a straight face, I think he deserves an award of some kind. I would have burst out laughing as soon as I tried to utter the first "Bucket."

You know, I'm sure he's a very good guitarist, but every time I see him, I flashback to an old boss.

Back at one of the stock brokerage firms where I worked, the CEO had something of a sadistic streak -- every time he fired a broker, he'd not only feel compelled to do it publicly, but he'd stick a FedEx envelope on the poor guy's head and make him say "Would you like fries with that?" He made sure to do this in front of as many people as possible. After witnessing a few of these, I managed to convince him not to pile on like that when canning people, but he probably reverted to type after I left...

If I ever worked for a boss like that he tried to pull that stunt with me, he would have walked out of that office with a FedEx envelope stuck up his @ss.

Stuck a Fedex envelope on their heads and made them say "would you like fries with that?" You mean people allowed him to do that and went along without stomping his guts out?
