Wanted: Workers who play well with others

What? I wonder if the CEO who lays off the masses the week before Yule passed his "plays well with others" test? Does your bus driver know his job really well or was he hired because he's a sweetheart?

Passing up technical competence for nice guys will result in a nice bunch of idiots... maybe this goes a ways towards explaining some of what we see all around us every day.

A resume and a brief job interview can't answer the question that matters most to a new hire's co-workers: Is this person an absolute pain?
