Leans head in door, “Hey boss, headed downstairs for some coffee; want anything?” I’m just a other-seeking social creature!

  Seriously, the number of people in this thread who desperately crave an IRL opportunity to kiss up to their boss is staggering.

    There is tremendous dissonance in culture between the rewards of ingratiation and the opprobrium of it. At the same time it is difficult to balance the difference between brown-nosing and being a normal caring fellow human being who is grateful to others. The example I gave is over the top (in my mind), but I assume different workplace cultures have different norms.
