I personally would love to work with people like that and thousands of other people wanted to as well. Remember the apt quote, "A grade people hire A grade people, B Grade people hire C grade people".
The fact is that A grade people understand that in order to be A grade you have to be passionate, dedicated, committed and have strong convictions. Very few people can have those qualities without coming across as arrogant, non team oriented or abrasive.
- creativename 14y agoI think it's one thing to be passionate, and another to tell people that work for you that their work is "shit". It might be one thing to say that to a good friend of yours, but if you constantly tell your employees that, they're just going to think that you're an asshole and it's probably going to be very detrimental to morale. The OP's point was that he would have been fired for the way he acted, not his abilities. Of course we would all love to work with passionate, talented people, but just because someone has those qualities it doesn't mean you can ignore how they interact with others. To your point, it's hard to have (and demonstrate) these qualities without coming off as abrasive.
