It all depends. I am a bit of a perfectionist, and it helps drive me to do a good job. On the flip side, however, my older brother and father are both BAD perfectionists. They constantly put down others thoughts and works, because it's not "good enough." I think most pefectionism comes from a lack of true self-confidence, and that perfectionists therefore not only hold others to their same "high standards," but they also are more willing to put down others ideas and creations to make themselves feel better. The moral? If you keep your perfectionism to yourself (lots and lots of humility), then it won't danger anybody. Unforunately, I find that few can accomplish this, and therefore most perfectionists come across as rude, impatient, sometimes egotistical, and un-supportive. Needless to say, that's a bad thing.
