Bullies are Miserable People
Do you think a happy, confident, mentally stable person would harass and bully others in a workplace?
Bullies are just spiteful shits who enjoy scapegoating and ostracizing certain people for the most trivial "reasons" imaginable.
Putting down others is the only way they can feel powerful or superior in their pathetic lives.
They will nit-pick, harass, gossip about, slander, and sabotage the target into eventually rage-quitting.
My last bully was a sad 46 year old woman, very overweight, uneducated, in an unhappy marriage with a bunch of kids, in debt, and had a plethora of health issues.
She sat around gossiping about people and reporting people for 'using the bathroom too long' or 'making coffee every morning' instead of focusing on her own work.
She'd get visibly elated when publicly talking down to or humiliating her chosen target. Or when she managed to make another person upset. Can you imagine deriving pleasure from someone elses pain??
Meanwhile, she demanded constant sympathy and empathy for all HER problems in life. She was allowed to miss lots of work, come in late everyday, and sit around gossiping or on her phone. But there were different rules for her chosen targets.
