    I had a shitty old (late 60s) boss in 2008 who once interviewed a female engineer straight out of college.

    Most interviews he gave took like 25-30 minutes. He spent an hour and a half alone in the conference room with this young woman.

    After she left he said something to the team like “Sure wouldn’t mind seeing her around the office every day eh? We’re not hiring her of course. Women don’t have the head for this work.”

    This same guy had me block all news sites except Fox News (I was the IT director). He was fine with his employees reading the news as long as it was Fox (I ended up teaching a couple of my coworkers how to use proxies).
