    Condescending coworker insults “uneducated” colleagues, says they deserve less pay despite needing constant help with basic tasks: ‘She’s very loud and vocal about her opinions, and can be very abrasive in her treatment of others’

    The modern workplace is a fascinating laboratory of human behavior, where self-awareness goes to perish and delusions of importance flourish like mold in a forgotten break room sandwich. Nothing showcases this better than valedictorian coworkers holding a bachelor of darts degree who mistake their education for actual competence, and everyone in their surroundings as walking dartboards ready to be pierced. Know wha I mean, mate?

    These scholarly aristocrats float through offices, spreading their special brand of condescension like pints at a pub. They've mastered the art of saying "no offense" right before saying something explicitly offensive, believing that this verbal get-out-of-jail-free card somehow masks their thinly veiled contempt for the degree-less peasants around them.

    Consider our latest specimen: a master's degree candidate who's taken it upon herself to conduct an unofficial payroll audit, complete with helpful commentary about her colleagues' educational status. She's perfected the art of diploma-tic insults, telling coworkers they're "uneducated" while struggling to compose basic workplace documents herself. The irony is thick enough to spread on toast.
