This isn’t true at all. Unless you are the only person who consumes the work you produce, and you produce it without the input of anybody else, then you work on a team, and how you get along with the other people in that team is the most important factor in your success.
- willcipriano 4y agoWhen the code doesn't work you can let the customer know that the team bond has never been stronger. The most important thing is delivering the product, working on a team is often critical for that but sometimes you need a few skilled individuals over a army of collaborators to get a product over the finish line.

Yes, it is true, because if the opposite were true, all work is being carried out by groups. I have personal testimony, which is all you need when making a “not all” claim. :-)
- AmericanChopper 4y agoSo you are not assigned work by anybody? You do not rely on any other person to provide an input to the work you are doing? You do not deliver the work that you complete to anybody? And it is not subsequently used by anybody else for any purpose? Because if you do any of those things, then congratulations, you have to cooperate with other people to do your work.
- sshine 4y agoI did have such a job, yes. No customers, no clients, no end users. But that is not what I’m saying; I’m saying you can be a disagreeable person on average, but because you work on a team of you, you only need to get along with your boss, who will leave you alone most of the time.
