I Work With A Nightmare
By Sam Blacker
At some point in our life we will work with someone who makes going to work a living hell. Someone so difficult and intense that we become riddled with anxiety and stress.
Sam Blacker gets people to anonymously share their stories of the truly worst possible coworkers and bosses and retells it with names and some details changed.
And while some parts are changed, the one thing that remains the same is that the truly nightmarish coworkers can be found in any job.
