How do you handle toxic coworkers? My coworker is a total energy vamp who spends all day complaining but then reports everyone else for negativity to the manager. She’ll spend an hour at my desk dumping her drama on me, and then the moment I mention I'm stressed, she tells me I need a better attitude. It’s created this weirdly paranoid atmosphere where nobody knows who they can actually trust.

If you're dealing with someone like that you need to make some boundaries and be a bit defensive. Don't let them waste an hour of your working day, first of all. If you let someone like that take advantage of you it's partly your own fault, and you need to deal with it.

I try to just ignore them and kill them with kindness. I have also asked people to not come to me with negative talk. That really affects my mood and my energy and I don't like being impacted by negativity.

My interview with Microsoft for SE2 was scheduled and cancelled a day before. Neither I received any email regarding cancellation nor the recruiter informed me. Two days later I got an email saying Microsoft is freezing hiring for certain departments and the recruiter is ghosting me. Will I even get a chance to interview atleast?
