Agreed. People like Jesse Thomas usually have had ample advice on how not to be jerk and why, but they ignored it. Unfortunately I think there are a lot of people out there that think that being a raging jerk is an acceptable and even desirable part of being a leader. Especially those who blindly idolize Steve Jobs. The problem is that many people don't understand that: A. They are not as talented as Steve Jobs B. Steve Jobs succeeded in spite of his assholery C. Steve Jobs got fired from his own company, partly because of his behavior D. Steve Jobs learned to mellow out a bit in his later years I live in DC, and I remember when I saw the first JESS3 sticker of his face and thought, "There goes an out of control ego." Didn't know that it would turn out this bad.
