We already know that being a selfish, manipulative, heartless bastard is what it takes to get ahead in a company.
If you are not willing to step on the the little people below you to get ahead then you won't get to the top.

I can guarentee that playground bullies are overrepresented in CEOs, boardrooms and in politics.
nepotism do be like dat mate
look at the political leadership of most of countries while on this train of thought...
As someone who was severely bullied at school and seen those cunts get to the top of the food chain, esp those that do nursing and psychiatry/psychology related fields, can’t say I’m surprised at that and it will always bother me until the day I die cuz they truly don’t deserve it at all.
bully nurses? Nurse Ratched is a meme, dude. Look it up. and it is from a 1970's movie, showing the trope is alive and well https://duckduckgo.com/?q=Nurse+Ratched+meme&t=ffab&atb=v347-1&iar=images&iax=images&ia=images
The UK's culture is pretty fucked up so I'd out to see this replicated in a normal country
Looks to me like pretty messed up is the new norm, nowadays.
The only bully I remember ended up addicted to heroin and meth. I would be very surprised if he's still alive given the fent crisis.
they are able to bully their boss into giving them better money during salary negotiations.
Boss' mind: this guy is crazy, give him what he wants otherwise he'll come back with a gun. it isn't my money. fuck it.
it is simple, more women need to disgruntle better /s
I literally giggled at your last sentence.
Somehow, when non-melanated men do it, it's "assertive," and when anyone else does it, it's "threatening."
