HA! You're straight up wrong. You're never going to find someone more motivated to BE right. They don't care about appearing to be right for lesser people. If you have skin thick enough to tolerate them they'll be immensely valuable. Also, their attitude is a huge disadvantage in the workplace causing them to be far more exploitable (cheaper) than their peers.
