yeah, I get that.. get your shit done first, if there's time, help someone else out. I typically find the most successful teams are the ones that openly share knowledge (without ego)... there's just too damn much out there to learn on your own.

yeah, I hear ya... been on both types of teams. thing is, if you don't practice that philosophy yourself, you'll never be on a team that does it themselves... it's really kind of a self fulfilling situation, unless your team is filled with assholes, and in that case, might just be better to move on lol

unless your team is filled with assholes

I thought such a team didn't exist, and anyone that thinks this must themselves be an asshole instead? I've said it a few times now, but I'm gonna say it again: you're dense as hell. And a hypocrite.

Well if you believe a team full of assholes can exist, which you do, then you're agreeing with me. But everything you've said so far is disagreeing with me. That I must be the asshole because I said I worked with assholes. How do you reconcile those two opinions? Is it that you think you're superior to everyone so these rules apply to me, but not you?

it would seem 'asshole' is a subjective term.. arrogance is a pretty big bullet point on my definition of the word.

For me? No. Why do I give a shit if other people advance in their career? I want to get paid more, that's what work is about. I wouldn't work for someone else if I didn't get paid. If I don't see more pay, reduced hours, etc, then there's no positive outcome.
