Bad Golf-As-Sex Metaphors Will Get You Fired

Which do you think this government official really got fired for: showing his peen to a golf course employee, or coming up with a truly awful one-liner?

Craig Ladiser is a planning director for Snohomish County, Wash., and this entitled him to play in a local golf tournament in June. Perhaps he shouldn't have started off his Thursday morning with two glasses of Jack Daniel's in the clubhouse, then continued to drink throughout his round.


Witnesses said two nearby golfers were discussing tee length and one, the woman identified in the investigation as Jane Doe, held up a tee to Ladiser's foursome. Ladiser then walked up to the woman, unzipped his pants and said something to the effect of "I'll show you the size of my tee," the report says.

Ladiser claims he had no memory of the event, but apparently remembered enough to take a leave from his job due to a "family emergency" and more or less go into hiding. But it caught up with him last week, and he was let go by the county. All for a friendly game of "Pebble Beach Peekaboo."
