A post-it note on his monitor of a secure password (they generally require a number or special character, as well as being 8 characters long), is actually better security than an extremely simple password. I can have him lock his office door... I can't prevent someone from brute forcing the password he's re-used on every site on the internet.
I literally tell my parents to have a secure password they write on a post-it note. The odds of someone breaking into their house for their password is about 1/10000th the odds of someone cracking their simple password on a website and getting the keys to the kingdom.
