We had a real prick of a guy working for us in the 80's and early 90's. He was a field super and treated everyone like crap, even his family. I was locking up the shop on a night when a blizzard had started a few hours earlier. I saw this guys son walking down the block going to work, probably around 9:00pm. I gave him a ride and asked how come your dad wasn't driving you in these terrible conditions. He said that dad was tired and if he wanted to go to work then he should walk. Mind you, 8 inches of snow, sleet and 30+ mile an hour winds, not fit for man nor beat. The father was a real heartless person, ego and money driven individual.
Eventually we find out he is having our crews do work for him for our customers under his company name at a discount. He gets fired, and becomes a a city plumbing inspector, chief in fact.
A few years later he's wearing stripes in a NYS prison for accepting bribes. Things went downhill from there, divorce and 3 kids that hated him. Now his a cripple living alone in a bungalow in Florida.
F him, thanks Karma!
