Title: I&#x27;m in this line of work for almost 17 years now and having yet one more of these days where I&#x27;m measuring how much time I am in my current company to see if I&#x27;m ok to start looking.<p>And I remember that every single time I wanted to run away from a role&#x2F;company&#x2F;project the main reason was always the other people in and around it. Personality incompatibilities, to put it gently. Ar$eholes to put it right.<p>That kind of stuff dissolves teams, burns people out, drives people out, wrecks projects and companies.<p>I&#x27;m curious. What&#x27;s your view on this? If my view  is valid then it seems to me that we have been discussing technology (e.g. which prog language is better for a domain) only because we cannot address the elephant in the room - aka peopleware. And if that&#x27;s so then in large part a lot of what we do is effectively losing battles.<p>Thanks
