Need the opposite costume, the overly eager sys admin.

wants to force password changes once a month for security
constantly changing security policies to reflect the flavor of the month
constantly sends out phishing emails tests, wonders why no one replies to any of his emails

Then they have you make it some 12 character length minimum string with mixed case and special characters and dictionary lookup so it isn't some common phrase but you're also logging in through a telnet instance onto a Unix system.
