What's the weirdest manager you've had?

Second week at my new job. My manager is 10yrs older than me and I feel like I'm the older one. Our first night working away she got drunk and didn't get back till 5am. Our train was at half 7 and we were interviewing... She did the same thing the next day.

I'd say that she's going through a 'phase' in her life where she's using her 'work freedom' (job travel) to compensate for the life she's not having at home.
I'll bet (just to justify my statements) that her husband and she are not on the most loving of terms and/or her home pressures with children are stressing her too much AND... a free night out using liquor as an excuse for a fling might be her way of coping. I'll also bet (on the same terms) that she'll crash soon. I hope she has some close friends who she can trust to talk her through this when it happens.

@JollyRoger Shes single and doesn't have children. Think she's a free spirit.
