Fascinating post for THIS forum.

I don’t know about others but a big reason I went into software development (whether I want to admit it or not) is because I am “naturally” not very skilled in talking to, or dealing with , people.

While I’ve done very well in tech, the truth is, lacking this skill has only been a detriment.

The problem at this point is I truly don’t like random people, and I have no idea how to fix that. Often people are rude, inconsiderate, selfish, etc. the canonical example is being in a row at the grocery store, walking down the row, someone’s cart is just way out in the center blocking your path, and as you approach, they do nothing.

Anyways “people skills” are definitely a SKILL and one I’ve avoided to my detriment over the years. Need to work on that.
