If Narcissists are coming to light in family and relationship arena – have you thought about the fact that they have jobs? The behaviors of a narcissist boss very much follows the same behaviors, the same lack of empathy, the same damage to victims. There are red flags that Human Resource departments need to understand to keep peace in the office. When a narcissist comes to work they use charm to find the next people they can use. They use people that can get them promoted and they use people that can do work for them, the real goal is to see who is strong and who is weak. Using different tactics to attract victims into the web or ‘suck up’ to the ones that will be ‘worker bees’.

The ‘worker bees’ tend to add more and more to their plate until they realize they are being abused. They give 140% at first to impress and win the ‘like’ of the boss, then because of the verbal abuse certain to come this employee strive to please the boss again and get back in his favor. The minute they speak up the narcissist at work turns on that employee. Causing them to be miserable at work and possibly and then using benefits like sick days and disability.
