For a short time he was a manager, but was removed. His fellow managers seemed to have the same problem as the other people Danny worked with, "They're all idiots. Don't know what they're doing."
He fools some people . . . for a while. Eventually, most people see that the problem is not with the people whom Danny worked with, but rather Danny, himself.
Danny could have been a good employee. He is knowledgeable. He's not hesitant in seeking answers. He holds people accountable. And actually, he's been known to go to bat for the people he works with.
So, what's the problem? Danny doesn't listen to people. He has no use for their opinions. Once he has formed a solution in his mind, he closes out any other type of communication. He shouts down opposition. And no matter what, Danny is always right. The other people are always wrong. When there is a problem he runs to management to present his side first . . . and Danny has been known to lie to cover his own misdeeds. But even bad managers are getting weary of his antics.

Most attempts to address workplace bullying come from other parts of the world, but workplace bullying is slowly becoming an issue in the United States as well. Just because it has not been mentioned, does not mean that it is not a problem. Many aspects of workplace bullying can be covered under various existing laws, and with an increased focus on the issue, organizations should take precautions to protect themselves by studying the legal risks associated with bullying.
"The purpose of bullying is to hide the inadequacy of the bully and has nothing to do with "management" or the achievement of tasks. Bullies project their inadequacies onto others to distract and divert attention away from their inadequacies. In most cases of workplace bullying reported to the U.K. National Workplace Bullying Advice Line, the bully is a serial bully who has a history of conflict with staff. The bullying that one sees is often also the tip of an iceberg of wrongdoing which may include misappropriation of budgets, harassment, discrimination, as well as breaches of rules, regulations, professional codes of conduct and health and safety practices."
