I think it's safe to assume here that this guy did not, in fact, get the job… but—hey, job interviews are stressful experiences, and each of us handles that stress in different ways. I, personally, make it through a job interview by completely blacking out from the stress and dissociating from my body; I couldn't tell you what happens in the time that follows, what I say or do—or even who I become is completely unknown to me.

Now, I wouldn't recommend this strategy for coping with interview stress. Still, it is probably superior to shouting down the receptionist of the place you're interviewing because they asked you for simple identification. It's safe to say that if this is how you react to a simple request, you will be an absolute nightmare to work with.
