I knew a senior engineer who did this. Granted I don't blame him, elevated accounts (basically admin accounts) had corporate assigned 36 character(letter, number and special) randomly generated passwords which expired every 6 hours. If you used the account on more than 3 computers the password expires.

To get new password you had to log in with normal account, go to special website, log in with your account and a authenticator code from company phone, request new password, write in a reason why you need it, go back to homepage of special website, approve your own request, go to your manager, ask them to approve it also, go back to special website, likely need to relogin including authenticator, finally new password is shown on screen for 30 seconds....

I used to trust last pass but with all their security breaches in the past few years...

I don't drink alcohol so I can't be a alcoholic. I drink distilled spirits... I'm just spiritual!

After he quit he got another job working with blades to be used on a farm

This went on for well over a year. Team lead was a nice guy, got promoted to team lead and decided everyone else was shit.

Last I heard coworker was doing something with the cutting blades on tractors and harvesters so he had a happy ending

Also years later I had a friend message me "hey former lead applied for a management job where I work and I saw he worked at company you did. Was he any good?" I told him all these stories and the former lead didn't even get an interview

Funny enough he "quit" when the lead said something to him(don't know what) and he told the lead to shut up. The lead responded with "you're on the clock, you can't speak to me that way"... He proceeded to punch out at the time clock, tell the lead "fuck you" and walked out...

I went to get a second plate and brought it my co-worker who was practically in tears at his station

He was an asshole so he should be used to shit. Same guy one year, the company sponsored a "Thanksgiving dinner", he told one of my coworkers, who was admittedly overweight like 300-350lbs "wait till everyone else gets a plate before you eat everything"

Years ago I was sick as hell. I was up all nigh vomiting and having diarehha. I hadn't left the toilet since like 11 the night before, I don't enen think I flushed it. I managed to text my boss that I was sick and couldn't come it. He had the nerve to call me a liar and say I was faking it. I sent him a picture of the toilet... Only response was "feel better"
