You think you have it tough!!! I work with around 20 other MALE programmers - I'm the only female programmer.
Well I'd win all the comps then - best female programmer, most productive female programmer, you name it - no competition.

When the survey is closed, the real results deliver the following results:
a) People that voted to be around people smarter than theyself are very shy to say they are more intelligent than the others, so they are dumb.
b) People that voted to be equally intelligent than the others around there are very dumb to see the differences, so they are dumb.
c) People that always think they are the most intelligent in the room are very full of theyself to see reality, (the other colleages are laughing over him), so they are dumb.
Conclusion. Anyone that votes this survey is dumb.
I didn't vote, so I'm more intelligent than the average, (so I'm dumb cause just in case I voted, I choose the option c) )
Just three words: void main(void)

I voted not as smart because I like job security. If everyone could do the job better than me who will get the boot when we downsize??

An economic reason is a good reasong! I didn't think of that one..
But what if everyone depends on you and you fail to find a proper solution, wouldn't you be the one to be in trouble?

In both A) and C) you stand out. Likely you will be canned unless you are really liked by the boss.
In B) you are just one of the crowd. All things aside you are just as likely to go as anyone else.
In situation C) you have no opportunity to grow your knowledge because everyone around you is sucking yours up. In B) you never grow your knowledge because everyone is at the same level. In A) you have mentors that can teach you new things which allow you to broaden your career options.

You allways have more work than you could possibly do but I still do spend some time growing my knoledge by this using site and reading books. Currently I have been spending some time each day learning C#.

Conclusion: No situation is perfect! In other words, every situation has it's up's and down's.
So far people find it more interesting to learn than the teach...
One day I hope to be a guru...

The question is what to understand under word smarter.
if it is more knowlegeble. Than personally for me there are choises:
First is that i can learn and improve my own skills from people hwo
has more experience than i.
But else if i am working in a society where every person
equal in his/her abilities than we have perfect conditions for
competition on professional(and sad thing - not only) level.
Pure competition is a blessing, not only for yourself.
The final choise was hard, but for now i prefer first point.
And if you mean by word smarter - intelligent.
Than it is twice hard question. One person can beter solve
differential equotions the other person may be guru on electronics
or for example on programming and so on(Maybe not the best comparison).
I do not know how to classifize people by their intelligence.
And if ever anyone will know this for sure, AI wont be a problem

Technically better or more intelligent?
A programmer that is better than me, is not necessarily more intelligent than me.
But a more intelligent person, is not necessarily a better programmer than I am.
I like to work with intelligent people.

I agree you have to make the distinction here.
Personally, I'd rather be towards the top in both areas. When you are the "smartest", you can get bombarded with every little issue and you have nothing to aspire to.
Give me technical competence and intelligence and I'll give you a great team!

If you get bombard with every little issue, wouldn't it be a smart thing to do to redirect them to CP;). Almost every little issue can be found in the articles, tutorials, f.a.q., ...

Very well said. Like having a girlfriend who is smarter than you... you can be the big man and say you don't mind, but every now and then you rebel against that notion and wish for a simpler girl.
Though in practice I reckon the agony is worth it in the long run.

Nothing "big" about it... it's more like greed. I want a smarter girlfriend because then there's a good chance she's making more money than me, in which case she'll be more likely to pay for dates and stuff.
