The asshole at work creates more work than they do. Anyone who hires one knows damn well what they’ve done and unless they have the balls to fire them, they’re complicit in keeping them around.

Can confirm, dealing with that type of asshole at work. He wants to do as little work as possible and offloads his responsibilities on others, causing massive slowdowns and inconveniences his fellow coworkers who all hate him, but management loves him because he's a suck up and a snitch (read: often makes up stuff about people to get them fired). It's so infuriating that these people just skate on by.
