Selling is just an excuse to be a lame ass and nuisance.

I think you pretty much proved my point and I mean that in a nice way.
It's like programmers - they're programmers, not salesmen. If they're good enough, people don't care if they're rude, but in some industries, you need people skills no matter what you do.
I have friend who owns an industrial engineering firm. He won't hire anyone who didn't play team sports growing up. He said the difference in the guys who did and those who didn't when put in a room of people was like night and day.
I know someone who's VERY successful in this biz but just doesn't socialize with people they don't know well. That's just them
If a designer is good enough, they can be as rude as they want and they'll find work. If they are average, they're going to need to learn social skills too.
