There's bound to be at least one obnoxious employee at every workplace. Maybe they like to pull "pranks" that nobody else sees the humor in, or maybe they like to help themselves to the office fridge when they're hungry, or they prefer to impress the boss at every turn by taking credit for other people's work. Working in Hollywood is, regrettably, frequently no different than working everywhere else.
