"I used to play rugby."

Man, how many people do you guys know who are like this? This is, "my name is Al Bundy and I scored 4 touchdowns in one game," teir.
I work the blue collar sector, so I tend to unfortunately run into these types more often than not.

"I used to play football back in high school/college/whatever, QB/D-Line/O-Line, etc I wouldn't do that if I was you." type bullshit. Usually when it's directed at me, I just treat it like a conversation to which I always drop that I've been a Boxer for 20 years, a Judoka for 8, and I'm still a practitioner of both.

Usually shuts down most hostility.

Boss used the I played sports 20 years ago card, hopefully he gets fired, but honestly seems like the rest of company is trash since no one else intervened

I'm totally in favor of doing the right thing, but remember that once you're in for a buck you're in for a bundle. If you're going to stop the chief, then don't pull your punches.
if you're gonna strike, strike with an iron fist. No mercy.

Wonder if the boss will remember anything about the newbie, he was quite into "Aya-chan" and also, quite drunk to openly sexualy harass a woman hierarchically under him in the corporation..
