Are you suggesting that somebody can only be one of pleasant or competent?
- austincheney 7y agoYou should always strive for both.

If it WAS a binary choice, I'd rather have a competent asshole than an incompetent nice guy. Being nice is absolutely important, incredibly so - I think we often forget that as engineers - but you still absolutely need to be competent first. Either skill can be learned, so if you're one and not the other, it's fixable.
