Absolute twat of a line manager at a job I was in.

"You're an ex-army man aren't you, Autogen? Well, I'm like your Sergeant. You understand why you should follow my instructions?"

I was a Captain.

I got married pretty early. In my 20s one of my bosses went to give me some marriage advice "... How long have you been married?"

"Eight years."

He had two ex wives at the time. "Ah. I've never been married that long."

He never gave me his advice.
