One of my colleagues or rather his wife got a better deal.
One of the employees of a former employer or mine got about 6
certificates for awarded patents, all of course 'assigned to company'
but these certificates were engraved on wooden shields for display.
However an other person, a service man, explained a problem to his wife
and the solution (similar to packing condoms under vacuum, then bursting
them open at a later time [*1]). She patented it. (who paid he patent
agent we do not know, but he was a partner in the company the firm
used). She / he then licensed it it to our company and it earned for his
wife about three times the MD's salary per year for about the 9 years
while we used it. When we were taken over the new owner refused to pay,
she sued, won a 'final single settlement' and he and she (in their early
50s) retired.
Most of us understood the settlement was very high because of deliberate
use of patent without paying.

PS thanks for Mark for PCI. Well done.
