I'm just too nice to be one of those jerk CEOs that society wants. That's why I'm not successful. /s This sounds a lot like "nice guy" syndrome, to be honest.

Edit: Added /s just to be clear.
- devmunchies 7y agoyou can be firm and forward without being a jerk. Jerk: this looks like shit, do it again. Not Jerk: almost there. let's do another iteration.
- cylon13 7y agoYeah exactly, that's part of what I'm getting at. The post I replied to sounds wise because it appeals to negative stereotypes about successful people while giving non-successful people a way to feel superior about their non-success. The truth is a lot of successful people are nice, have good people skills, are generous etc.
