You are clearly what he's complaining about.

When personalities are incompatible, neither side has the automatic right to claim being the correct one, not even the one that describes itself as nice or cooperative.

For all the insults they flung in this post, and as incorrect as that is on it's own and all else being equal, by calling theirself asshole, they exhibit more self-awareness and honesty that for instance this remark.

I don't know much of anything a out either you or the OP, but if I had nothing else to go on but the OP and your comment, and was forced to cboose who to work with based on only that info, I would choose the OP immediately and every time with no doubt.

Now, you can simply call me a asshole too, and like the OP I'll totally agree that to you I'm an asshole, but I think it would serve you (and everyone who has to work with you) to think about this a little.
