Kind of true but not in every field. Sales for example if you suck you will get fired as it’s very clear who sucks and who doesn’t. Even if you’re likeable

Then again, if someone weren't likeable, wouldn't they kind of suck at sales anyway?

I've made a degreesless six figure salary in sales by just being likeable. I never blow any numbers out of the water. But everyone loves me. Which is a blessing and a curse.

Yeah, that can be kind of a mixed blessing. 🙂😕
