Lazyiness? his other passwords were good like  NPABqTlkxt2tN3E5 and eoywOS7ln9CPbxYWBMzq

I also think we have the company wifi on something very easy.. companyname123 or something like that

But those are actually terrible passwords (good for security, awful for memory). The good old fashioned HorseBatteryStaple is just as entropic and unbreakable by brute force than some random and bizarre character arrangement.

Aye those passwords don't fill all the tick boxes to a strong password,

Over 8 characters - yes

Caps and non Caps - Yes

Numbers - Yes

Symbols - No

The only thing having stupid passwords like that would do in an office would be force people working there to write them down or to store them somewhere since they are just beyond the level of pointlessly complex to remember unless there happens to be some relevence to the arangement but I certainly doubt it with the combinations of Qs and Zs.
