Yes, we all know what a goody-goody you are
-Imagine a young, bright and opinionated programmer. Wearing dreadlocks and a smelly t-shirt that says "1337 h4x0r".
His boss says "I'm gonna have to pull you off that leading-edge project with the 3D app, we need you to go fix bugs in someone else's crap code on that system I know you think is solid junk. For about a year or so. Okay?"
That
leader will need all the tricks in the book, and some genuine people skills, to get good performance out of the programmer.
