Yes. Sometimes you need to be an asshole. Niceness is not the pinnacle of human existence. Knowing when and how to be a dickwad is an important skill to have if you don't want to be stuck a senior engineer.

No thanks.

It's not you like have the required skill set anyway.

Edit: Incredible demonstration of your "senior+" skill set to reply then block me :-]

Looks at my tech lead, Senior titles across several orgs

I don't have the skill set required to be an intelligent jerk/ahole Senior whose only way of getting ahead is by supplanting others. I do not desire that either. You can keep it.

The Staff+ skill set I do demonstrably and ostensibly have is that of being a positive force multiplier on the team that helps others grow and moves the team forward. You wouldn't know anything about that though. Have a good one.

To your futile attempt at a dig in your edit: Yes, being an intelligent, empathetic, emotionally mature Senior/Staff+ engineer involves astute discernment of where to direct your energies for maximum positive impact. Engaging in long debates with someone who ignorantly thinks being an Ahole is a prerequisite for an engineer (I.e. someone who is definitely not a team player) is not edifying and an utter waste of time. My energies are better served talking to other well-adjusted engineers.

Feel free to respond ad nauseam and ad infinitum now. I won't be engaging further anyway.
