Possibly forever, and I think it's very likely they develop a chip on their shoulder because the world is not properly valuing their skills.
Never underestimate the ability of people to come up with all kinds of reasons why they are being treated unfairly.
- toolz 11y agoI think that's a negative bias. The majority of people behave rationally and while they may speak negatively in public, internally they will understand the pattern. We have a tendency to put too much value in what people say rather than how they act. I'm confident actions would reflect people understanding their value in a transparent world, even if their words did not.
- retrogradeorbit 11y agoI agree. Over the decades I have worked with a few below average engineers who were so deeply arrogant they simply refused to believe they weren't God's gift to engineering. This is a small minority though.
