I’m periodically reminded of some of the worst people I’ve had the pleasure of working with in corporate America. While everyone’s worked with people who are merely negative or less-intelligent or annoying, the worst-of-the-worst people are downright evil and malicious. We spend so much time at our workplaces that morale and enjoyment of the people you spend your life with becomes very important.
If one of those people is a sociopath, it can really put a strain upon your workdays. Strange that I would still think about these people, but negative incidents stick with you a lot stronger than positive ones, in many cases. Some of these psychopaths float from company to company, leaving destruction and casualties in the wake of their passing. These people are pretty wheels-off, out-out-of-control in many cases. Oh, the stories I could tell – and there’ve been so many of them!
