Explanation:
The provided query in SQL that selects the names of all employees along with their corresponding manager's name by joining the 'employees' table to itself using the "manager_id" and "emp_id" columns.
The "||" operator concatenates the "emp_name" column of the employee with the string " works for " and the "emp_name" column of their manager.
The WHERE clause includes the employees who have a corresponding manager in the 'employees' table.
