> "haven't learned wage-slave mentality yet"
> In the ensuing outrage, a PowerPoint presentation written by St. John surfaced which included a slide in which he referred to engineers with Asperger syndrome as being "the holy grail" of hires. "They work like machines," he wrote, "don’t engage in politics, don’t develop attitudes and never change jobs."
Someone needs to send all these people patio11's guides to salary negotiation, and maybe some drug to make them more aggressive and disagreeable. (Modafinil?)
- digi_owl 10y agoIf you haven't seen an aspie thats aggressive and disagreeable, then you haven't seen an aspie outside his/her comfort zone.
- aab0 10y agoSalary negotiation is outside their comfort zone; yet it doesn't seem to help.
- wolfgke 10y agoBecause negotiations (thus salary negotiations) aren't about spreading disagreement, but about making an agreement with which both sides can cope. Thus if you add the personality trait "aggressive and disagreeable" to a typical aspie, you'll get a termination of negotiation instead of a strongly suboptimal (for the aspie) negotiation result.
