Asking because not only did I suspect my (now former) boss to be like that, there was also a massive meltdown in a specific content creation space where an otherwise extremely kind CC was exposed as… being a bit special. So I thought I should try to get better at spotting ppl like that in order to not burn myself
Edit: Thanks everyone. I guess I didn’t word it correctly but my goal wasn’t to “diagnose” someone. I’m Autistic & am working in a field that allegedly attracts lots of hyper-competitive/toxic ppl, so I want to protect myself. That’s why. I already saw tons of useful comments so
I’ve watched a few youtube videos on this specific subject, just search narcissist there. Please also be aware of the Dunning Kruger effect (where Psych 101 students think they’re psychiatrists), remember human behavior is too complicated to draw serious conclusions from superficial observations, so please don’t think you know more than you know and don’t treat people like memes.
