    Life is short.

    Don't suffer fools.

My boss and I talk about this sometimes. We both transferred from one department to another (for different reasons and at different times). Our previous department was good, and I think we both liked working there. But there were a handful of what I can best describe as "characters." Not bad people, just people that you wouldn't invite out for a drink after work or would actively avoid carpooling to a meeting with. The area we're in now doesn't have that. Everyone's great, and it's a much better environment.
