Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to get us slouchers off our behinds and actually deserve a salary.

A psychopathic boss is someone who exhibits traits of psychopathy, such as lack of empathy, manipulative behavior, and a disregard for rules and consequences, in the workplace.
It is estimated that about 3-4% of the general population have psychopathic traits, and this percentage is believed to be even higher in the corporate world.
A psychopathic boss can create a toxic work environment, leading to high turnover rates, low morale, and negative impacts on employee mental health. They may also engage in unethical or illegal behaviors that can harm the company's reputation and success.
While some may argue that psychopathic traits can be advantageous in the corporate world, research has shown that these individuals are more likely to engage in destructive and unethical behaviors, which can ultimately harm their own success and the success of the company.
It is important for employees to set boundaries, document interactions, and seek support from HR or higher management if necessary. It is also important to prioritize one's own mental health and not tolerate abusive behavior from a boss, regardless of their position in the company.
