The story sounds made up. The department head sounded like too much of a cartoon villain, at least from our perspective. From their perspective, they probably regard him as 'badass' or whatever.
However, no one with more than two braincells would worsen a situation like that by saying that sort of thing out loud.
The interesting thing is the reaction of Redditards. And I say that as someone who wore masks before they were legally mandated, just out of an abundance of caution. They want you to obey. Probably in February 2020, they would have screamed at people that they should not wear masks, because the authorities had ordered it so.

Very fake. Nobody would ever confront a crying young female that way IRL.
