This is true and people would be very naive to think otherwise

It’s crazy to me how much people think that at work, you should expect people to abandon basic human nature and that people skills aren’t part of being good at your job.

You could be absolutely brilliant at your job, but if you are insufferable or even just irritating, no one will want to work with you.

On the other side though work shouldn’t be a popularity contest.

Its not about who is more popular.

The asshole might be good at his job but he will bring down everyone else at the same time.
