Sometimes it doesn't matter how well you treat your "partner", you'll still be "a jerk" at the end of the day.
In a draw Pro-Am tournament one spring I was catching fish behind docks, so I told my non-boater to join me on the front deck so he could get some shots in. He says, "No that's ok, I can't shoot a bait into those tight spots like you're doing".
The next day I had guys ribbing me because the dude pissed and moaned all night saying that I front-ended him all day long. 🙄 Whatever. 🤷♂️
