He has looked for other jobs in the factory. He has been there 6 years and just a few months ago made a huge pay jump up $12 to where he is maxed out. Leaving this company is not an option as there is no way he would find anything close to what he is making now with his lack of education. He has had several different jobs in the company and of course is never happy at any of them for too long because there's always at least one person he can't get along with. And it's NEVER his fault he can't get along with them either.

Definately sounds like he has serious issues...my ex who is NPD was very much like that...one job after another and all populated by co-workers who were 'idiots' and bosses who were 'incompetant'. I originally thought he must be right as he seemed so smart, knowledgable. I was wrong, of course. He was horridly insecure...and a typical Narc, so he made himself feel superior by putting down anyone who didn't agree with him-- of which I became one of many, eventually. Yours may not be NPD, but it does sound more like a PD, than just laziness.
He sounds like he could benifit from some sort of therapy but whether he'd be willing to go...another story. If you intend to stay with him, you'll just have to figure a way to accept it, because it doesn't sound like he's likely to change. If you don't want to accept it, I suggest therapy for yourself, and planning a way to extricate yourself from him and your situation.
Take care
