Telephone abuser was coming in on weekends to call his girlfriend who 
had moved to Japan.  I got suspicious when I came by work on a Saturday, 
and he was there on the phone.  He didn't strike me as the dedicated 
type.  Many kilobucks, and they let him pay it back.  I would canned his 
ass, he knew what he was doing...

Ex-employees, after layoffs, or normal termination.

Unwanted visitors: best one was recruiter (friend of mine, actually), 
who snuck in while we were giving a building dedication.  She was going 
around and getting names off of doors.  She was surprised when I helped 
her to leave.

Evacuate: Gas leak in old building.  Best comment on me running arounf 
and removing people was: "Gee, you move fast for a large man." :-)
