Why there is always one

[Halo Jones]

BTW OP. Did you check Urban Dictionary before you created your Username?

I had to go look that up - but my question to you is did you know that off the top of your head or do you check everyone's names there?

You're a code monkey from down under. Where do these delusions of grandeur come from?

I'm going to hit back with love.

If you want to move forward, you must let go of your ego. The way forward for good techies like you is to let go of the ego and start listening. Always be a student. Don't judge others before you have seen them in many different situations over an extended period of time. If you do these things you will rise off the tools that make you angry.

1. Don't let them get on your nerves.
2. Work with them on something where they can see your skills, but when it comes to presenting the solution to the business/management, let them take the lead with you backing them up.

You're above everyone. You're a contractor.

FTFY

Every client that I have been at, there is always exactly one permie who gets himself into a game with you, always trying to score points and make himself look better than you.

I was pondering why it's always one and not two, or more. Always one little blot on the landscape that gets on my nerves.

And then it dawned on me, it's always the one who was at the top spot before I joined, he wants his spot back. Could it be?

Never happened to me once

You're not below anyone or above anyone. You're a contractor.
