This is just the hen, fox and grain puzzle

It's not, the way it's written, the asshole cannot coexist with either the bore or the idiot, which is pretty accurate.

The hen can't be alone with the fox or the grain, so it's still the same.

You're right, I want thinking of the manager thermals as counting as another person for the purposes of "alone with", but provided they can move back and forth simultaneously with their employee (or they're always counted as part of the new team) then the puzzle is possible.

No, it's the wolf, cabbage and goat puzzle.
