Me: It is strange how most of the time people will throw all reason and logic out the window in favour of protecting their own status and ego.
Support engineer: Yes, I know, but I’m not a software developer, so I really don’t have much of an ego, which means I can’t really be arsed with all of that.
Me: What do you mean?
Support engineer: Don’t you realize that most software developers have massive, oversized egos?
Me: I don’t know. Personally I don’t put much ego into things. I just have a blatant distrust in other people, born out of.. an unjustified sense of superiority.
Support engineer: See, my point exactly.
..I guess self-awareness (and deprecation) are the first steps to a cure. At least knowing your flaws means you can work around them.
