Every co-working venue seems to have at least one idiot wandering around in a black turtleneck being deliberately selfish and rude to everyone. Never seen one

Every co-working venue seems to have at least one idiot wandering around in a black turtleneck being deliberately selfish and rude to everyone.
Never seen one of them actually be successful at anything except annoying people.
So far my personal "black turtleneck success ratio" is about 100:1 failure/success, and I never met the single success. I include Elizabeth Holmes, who I haven't met either, on the failure side.
- kirykl 6y agoThey really should be going barefoot if they’re trying to cargo cult their way to success by mimicking Jobs
- LinuxBender 6y agoThey just get the order wrong. It's more like, being very successful means you can get away with being an a-hole a bit more. Steve Jobs really put himself in danger doing elevator interviews. That isn't someone I would mimic the behavior of.
- foolmeonce 6y agoYeah, but if you ever see someone paying attention to them you know they are talking about something great. If you see people talking to nice people you have to listen and evaluate the ideas yourself.
