@faithisleaping I definitely agree with the sentiment. But it's naive to imply one would can discern political games from sincere kindness. Maybe I am just cynical.

@aj @faithisleaping Judging a skill set is significantly easier than judging character. Furthermore, you rely on the faulty premise that character traits are set in stone.

@faithisleaping I disagree. It seems from my perspective that the socially adept excel at rising through the ranks, while those who struggle with the political game flounder. And I have noticed that most people judge the kindness in a way that is antithetical to integrity. Regardless, the reward for being a "decent person" should be intrinsic.
