Yes. Most people are fine with jerks.
I’ve worked with plenty of jerks and it doesn’t really bother me. I, like most well adjusted people, say “that person is just a jerk, whatever” and move on with my day.
Wimps grind the entire company to a halt because we all need to focus on their wellbeing 24/7 because they can’t do that.
It’s not to say wimps are bad. It’s just that wimps can kill a company culture just like jerks do. And more often than not, it’s the combination of the two that really causes most of the trouble.
Nothing is more damaging to a company than an over performing jerk and an underperforming wimp on the same team.
If this was the case, would they really be jerks?
