About this test
Every office has that toxic coworker everyone whispers about. The brave question: is it you? 16 honest items on credit-stealing, gossip, drama and politics — one verdict, no judgement, just a pattern named.
Methodology
16 self-report items (4 per pattern) on a 5-point Likert scale. The four patterns synthesise common workplace dysfunction archetypes. Pop-psychology framing, not a clinical instrument.
