“Heroes” that are incompetent but still manages to somehow save the day by working all nighters and sacrificing everything to counter their incompetence gets a lot more attention and interest from non-tech managers than competent smart developers that solves the same problem on time with no drama and go home to their families at 5PM. However I still prefer not to be a “Hero” :) My job is not my life.
