&quot;I propose, instead of this jackassery, three actual virtues: Hard Work, Patience, and Humility. How much better would it be to work with people who embraced and embodied these qualities? How great would it be to make “no assholes” a universal policy? How great would it be, if our industry was actively welcoming instead of actively exclusionary?&quot;<p>Absolutely. &quot;No assholes&quot; would hollow out a lot of unattractive workplaces faster than Covid-19
