The last mid-to-big company I worked for had an excellent system of setting up your new software that involved calling you to please confirm you 2FA.

When I said "I'm pretty sure I followed at least four trainings telling me not to do that" they were not amused. I, on the other hand, was extremely amused by telling them no.

Brilliant!

Two companies ago I was told I had failed to pass an email phishing test and so would be required to take another training in it. I pointed out that I could not, in fact, have failed such a test as I don't respond to anything (real or faked) from management. I still had to take the training. So for the rest of my time at the company I turned in every email I received from management as a phishing attempt. I was told to stop it, but replied that I was simply being careful in following training. I'm sure they blocked me after that.
