CEO had massive narcissistic traits. He would manipulate any situation to make himself feel better for his shortcoming. I once witnessed him verbally attack a coworker to tears for using the company card to buy a coffee on a work trip. his reason was "We have free coffee in the office why didn't you just take that". she was fired for grouse misconduct a week later for getting a new job. when i confronted him about it he made it sound like she was the bad guy and betrayed him as narcissists do.
