"He thought he looked like a real pistolero," Clint wrote, but his colleagues thought he looked like a twit who mistakenly thought two kilograms of tech bouncing around his waist was cool."
""We opened his office and pasted his mouse on his desk with epoxy resin," he told Who, Me? "The next Monday, he entered his office, powered up his computer and tried to move the mouse: The entire desk trembled and shook, but the pointer on the screen didn't move at all.

A consultant at a major Italian entertainment company experienced a disruptive reorganization that brought an incompetent new boss. The boss displayed an excessive faith in technology and a fetish for physical security, and quickly antagonized the whole office. He paraded through the open-plan area with a telephone and personal digital assistant on his belt, and habitually left early on Fridays.
