I get the sentiment, but don't you think punching someone in the face is a bit too much?

- packetslave 13y agoOnly if you're under the impression Mr. Internet Tough-guy would actually do it.
- msandford 13y agoI doubt he'd actually punch someone in the face, it's a bit of bravado to make a point: a lot of the "company culture" doesn't have anything to do with making the business work and more to do with people's personal preferences.
- rfnslyr 13y agoObviously yes I'm kidding. I think it's extremely insulting to disregard the years I have put into perfecting my craft because I don't have the same outward appearance/attitude as everyone else. No matter how much of a cultural fit you are, that doesn't get the work done, the expertise does. I work at a team right now that has: Indian men/women in their mid 40's. Young teenage interns from. People ranging from Indian, to Asian, to White, to Jewish, to men, to women, to gay, to straight, you name it. We have not gotten along better. It really doesn't matter. "Culture fit" is just a poor patch to cover up insecurity.

- anoncowherd 13y agoYep, and obviously I figured you wouldn't actually go punch someone in the face. It's just that I'd like to see that declaration made less often :)
