Ehh I am the nerd and I’ll start the convo. I actually think this gets me in trouble. People judge the book by the cover.

This new hire makes me look bad I am worried that so and so is better than me What if their implementation is better and their company does better than mine

Instead of being happy and comfortable with the uncomfortable people react poorly
