Update: '[I] woke the CEO up at midnight': Night shift worker calls 200 tech support clients in the middle of the night after boss tells them he 'doesn't want excuses'

You want phone calls? You got phone calls. That's totally fine by this overnight worker, since they usually barely call anyone during their shift anyway. 

As an employee, you may see the CEO of your company just a few times. Often, you'll be introduced to the CEO when you first start at the job, so it's important to make a good impression. After all, depending on your position and the size of the company, you may just never see them again after that. Most of us just don't work one-on-one with CEOs, so those few encounters are definitely how the CEO will remember you. 

This person made an impression on the CEO that they'll never forget, by giving them a phone call in the late hours of the night. I wonder if the CEO remembers this fondly now---it's probably pretty funny to everyone involved in hindsight.
