It's not unusual for people to be protective of their possessions in a workplace setting. In a generally shared space things have a tendency to go missing, and when those things are essential for completing your required daily tasks tracking them down can be a bit rage-inducing. Just ask any mechanic who has had sales staff all-up in their workshop tampering with the carefully organized chaos of their workstation. Like Milton with his red Swingline stapler, if one more thing goes missing they might be just ready to burn the place down.

While there are acceptable actions, like burning down the building when someone misplaces your tools, there are those who tend to take things a touch too far.

This 'Karen' of a boss took it upon herself to mark her chair as off-limits when she left to take a vacation. The thing was, her employees were being monitored by surveillance footage to see if the chair had been touched, but they were also required to fill in for her work while she was gone. This meant that the only thing the employees could do was reach over the chair to her computer in order to do her work. We've sure seen some horrible bosses around these days and this one makes the list.
