Office/Corporate Politics in Sales & Trading?

title says it all. have heard that it could get bloody and ugly real quick but was always curious about what exactly goes behind the scenes

Anybody got any stories to share about corporate politics on the trading floor? understand that this is a highly sensitive subject so be as vague as you like!
