Completely reasonable. I was extremely difficult to work with for a long time until I learned how to change my tactics.

But maybe that's the core difference. I can learn how to change my tactics, even if it took me years to figure it out.

Edit: The real key for me was turning social interaction into a programming problem. Once I did that, I went from completely inept terrible person to work for, to a person who works with C levels regularly, and does upper level VC work.

And all that really happened was I turned the business social interaction into a programming problem mentally. Once I turned it into a game, I started to succeed at it. But it's not organic.
