Anyone else meeting freaky awkward partners?

I don't know what it is, but for every couple of down-to-earth, chill partners I meet, I get a few who are just assholes - gruff, grumpy, and while I respect their "honesty" I don't really want to picture myself working for them.

Worse for me is the polar opposite: one or two that is freakin too nice. Like able to scare little kids , because they try to be so overly nice it comes off as bizarre, insincere, almost like a pedophile might behave at a lemonade stand.

I try to tell myself that they are just being polite and enthused about me interviewing. But I can become so nervous and get so flustered that I don't know if they're messin around with me by being so uber-"friendly." I also wonder how they got to be partner if they come off so strange. :?:

Almost without exception, the partners I interviewed with came off as more normal than the associates I interviewed with.
