There’s blowing off steam by ticking off a bad boss, and then there’s taking the level of craziness up a notch. A bunch of housekeeping staff of an under-construction realty project in Virar, accompanied by others, allegedly beat up their supervisor and chewed his ear off after he reprimanded them for failing to complete a task. The assaulted supervisor got himself to a hospital with his mangled ear in an autorickshaw, where doctors re-attached it during a two-hour surgery.
