Just trying to help you Rex. Heal your inner child!
Symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder
1. Grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)
2. Is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
3. Believes that he or she is “special” and unique and can only be understood by, or should associate with, other special or high-status people (or institutions)
4. Requires excessive admiration or attention
5. Has a very strong sense of entitlement, e.g., unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with his or her expectations
6. Is exploitative of others, e.g., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
7. Lacks empathy, e.g., is unwilling to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others
8. Is often envious of others or believes that others are envious of him or her
9. Regularly shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes

Just a sidebar and not meant as a shot at Rex, but just a PSA.
I managed ("had responsibility for" might be a better phrase)a narcissist who strongly exhibited all the symptoms for 7 or 8 years. No one else would take the guy and he did bring value to the company but was constantly creating problems. From experience and in other documents I learned that the narcissist can never acknowledge the personality disorder. To do so would violate the core aspects of the syndrome. So never expect a narcissist to thank you for the feedback. They view it as proof that you are envious or threatened by their superiority and will reject suggestions to improve their interactions with others.
