When i first joined this forum i was constantly reminded that "everything on reddit is fake" so i'm just applying that principle and that is why i figured people might want to chat about it. [I realise i probably should have taken it to a reddit comm which would be a more relevant place for it.]

It's not so much that it doesn't align with my principles (beekeeping is based after all), it is just that it's* laying it on a bit thick*. Even if OP is telling the truth, he didn't need to make such a juicy story about it - we all get crazy coworkers once in a while, don't need to give them a public trial on reddit.
