    Do you partake in earnings management

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencet...ARCISSIST.html

    apparently if you are a Narcissist then you may partake in "earnings management" which is a polite term for fiddling the figures.

    Previous studies have shown that in the accounting field, narcissistic employees are bad news.

    In fact, people who score highly for the trait are more likely to engage in fraud and 'earnings management', which is when employees bend rules to make businesses seem to perform better than they actually do.
    Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
