I agree with this post in general. I am currently working on a project by myself, and have been for the last 4 years. I am getting a bit bored, I don't want to stagnate and I can sort of see the need to get back to working with a team. I have been contemplating this for ~18 months, however I dread the thought of it because I know it is almost certain I will end up working with at least one passive aggressive, insecure, egotistical fuckwit that will drive me to look for another project anyway.

I have worked on 13 project teams in the last 20 years. Every single team that has had more than 3 people has contained at least one whacko that has made life miserable for everyone else.
