Answer 3

A person who taunts another person, the taunter is either angry or is suffering from a lack of self-esteem.
I have to admit, I taunted a former supervisor for about 5.5 years after I quit. The reason being, she called me at my house and informed me that I better watch my back because she had a loaded gun with my name on it. The reason for this threat was because I told this ***** to "Take this job and shove up her a$$." Making a whooping $2.00/ hr because of a disability wouldn't you? When I did quit, after working this ignorant ***** for about 3-4 weeks, 15-20 other of my former co-workers quit this job with-in an hour after I quit. In this case, revenge was ever-so-sweet.
