    And engineers specifically cultivate that. If you ever recommend they try to develop their “soft skills,” watch out

      As an engineer, I’m an extrovert around other nerds (of various stripes) and an introvert around others. I mean what are we going to talk about? How you took 8 hours to make a PowerPoint for your new ad slogan? Politics? Gross. Better to stay in my own head at that point.

      I wonder how you’d react if we insisted you improve your technical skills.

        Can we call them “hard skills”?

          Ah, so you have a pile of virtual paper and still no technical skills.
