Before retiring,I witnessed the slow erosion of loyalty between employer and employee for almost as many reasons you can think of over the past 20-25 years. Wages not keeping up with inflation, longer hours, fewer benefits, competition from Asian manufacturers, etc. etc. I don't have any single answer that would describe the need to graffiti a bosses vehicle, although listening to each other may be a good start.

One place that I worked at was particularly anti-labor. The personnel officer was a rather obnoxious type. One morning he came to work and found a pile of human excrement on his desk. He must have really pulled someones chain the wrong way. I don't know which is worse, that, or a paint job on your car. Either way the nessage definitely can't be misinterpreted.

I have found that some bosses really don't know how to do their job. Or maybe it's just their personality. Also, it could be the pressure from their bosses.

Though I'm not one that is fond of "messing" with other people's property. This is pretty funny. I'm sure there were ramifications.
I've a friend who said that if he ever won the lottery, he'd hire me to photograph him mooning the boss as a means of quitting.

What a way say to say I quit!!!!!! br br I reckon... (show quote)
I remember a terminal manager at a trucking company I worked for Finding a blank Tomb Stone on his desk . This guy was an overbearing ass, he had the job because his daddy was a big shot at GM. He threatened a driver out of our Arlington Texas terminal because the driver did not call him "Mister".
I think he got the message he did change is tune some after that.
