I'm a complete bastard. no really, that's what many of the comments from the "peer review" section of my annual review at work say. some choice quotes:
"Given Nathan's impressive array of technical skills and his vast storehouse of knowledge, it is easy to inderstand why he may be impatient with others, particularly those not as knowledgeable as himself. This tendency to be abrupt with other team members can lead to hurt feelings and resentment among those who do not know him well (and even among those who do at times). The burden of being smart is the need for great patience."
"Nathan is very capable of expressing his ideas, but he often seems frustrated or unaware that others don't already have the knowledge that he does."
"Nathan's knowledge is immense and I think sometimes others feel intimidated by this, and Nathan could ease those situations by educating those people rather than dismissing them."
"More tolerance of other people's seemingly stupid questions would go a long way in improving Nathan's relations with other team members. Everyone knows he is smart, he just needs to be a bit less irascible."
"There are times when Nathan speaks condescendingly when making suggestions, which can cause unnecessary tensions."
"A kinder, gentler Nathan would be a wonderful thing."
"Try not to make the person you are helping feel inferior. Give advice and help to peers as if they are equals."
"Nathan knows a lot of stuff. Sometimes he forgets that others don't know as much as he does. He can sometimes appear impatient with the lack of understanding of others. He can also sometimes appear defensive when problems are discussed, particularly if he feels responsible. Finally, he sometimes walls off probing or questioning from others with comments like, "don't worry about it" or "I'll take care of it."
