So having a goal and being a helpful person makes you a douchebag?
Or maybe you mean that helping other people is fine, as long as you are not aware of the fact that it is likely to help you, too?
Read the memoirs of any successful business person. They all say that treating people nicely earns their loyalty, and is an essential part of success.
Is that "douche-y"?
Heaven forbid some asshole douchebag treats me well and helps me fulfill my goals, just to make himself better off, too!
>Less facetiously
This whole conversation is facetious. That's the only reason why the (juvenile) parent comment is getting upvoted. Moreover, I don't think he's ever tried to see how far he could get in business by being a douchebag. In practice (outside of Michael Douglas movies), nobody wants to work with them.
