haha that's so relatable. Perfect example of someone just acting based on how they want to be perceived rather than how things actually are. The thing is, everyone else around sees right through it too which makes it all the more sadly humorous.
I worked at a company where our boss begged us to ask a question at the all hands meetings. Privately I told him if he gave me some questions to ask, I would ask them. I didn't expect it, but next meeting he handed me a small piece of paper with a question, so I stepped up to the mic to ask. He was so happy.
Nothing changed at the company of course, the culture was long since set. But he felt good, I felt good I did it for him. One of those moments where playing the game made everyone happy.
