I know i serve for at least 2 examples.
First one was as a a security guard, though that was back in my early 20s, on what not to do at work on some seminar. There was a video of me dosing off standing up.
In my defense, i have ADHD and it was boring as hell job and it was impossible to make a living wage with normal hours so everyone had to do overtime massively.
Other one is at my current job, as a printing machine operator. It’s rather important to make sure that the active runn in the machine is in correct way, aka facing the machine or the operator, etc. primarily for the next steps in production.
For one specific job i constantly messed it up and printed it the wrong way. Eventually design department did a special picture just for me, with my name on it. On how this certain run must face while in the machine. It had a human figure on it(with my name) the run and machine.
This picture still goes along with that job up to this day, though no one else afterwards hasn’t messed it up in the threat that my name will be replaced by theirs.
We had something kinda similar at my last workplace.
A guy, “Bob”, with the worst attitude you’ll ever come across. Total nightmare. Multiple times on any given day, he’d put down and even threaten people or rat them out to their bosses if some tiny little detail didn’t go the way he liked it. When said bosses reacted indifferently, he’d full on stalk people before and after work to have a go at them. For this and only this purpose, he even drove to a guy’s house several towns over.
At last, he got reprimanded (kinda rare in Europe) and was fired (even more rare) within a few months. And only because that specific company was generally very intolerant of this sort of behavior.
For a long time after this whole ordeal, if somebody displayed a bad attitude at work, we’d say: “Hey, look, he’s pulling a Bob.”

Some previous employee’s last name became slang for “a major fuck up” in one of my jobs. I don’t think that’s too uncommon.
