I think the best thing to do is a version of what's mentioned in the article, just say you're really busy and you can't stay in the chat. And don't worry about it after that, if they gossip about you behind your back that's not your problem. You'll have your time back, and you won't be pestered by tons of notifications, and that's what matters. Oh, what a time to be alive.

Yeah they eventually kicked me out. Which is fine with me.

Can you just turn off notifications and pretend it doesn't exist? I find that being a very passive member of a group chat is the best way to avoid the drama. I have had several situations like this in my personal life and I always just decide to keep quiet rather than leave the group.

I mean, I think your concerns are valid if you’re not in the circle of toxic gossip you become the topic of that toxic gossip. I would just silent notifications and every now and then check in and pretend to read it, but even that might be risky, not being involved enough good luck to you.

Hello, I have a question that needs your inputs how to handle. I am working with a post-MBA Associate on a project and this person seems to do extra work beyond what the team is asking the rest of us to do. I think during our conversations with the leadership, there were a couple of points that were brought up by the MD but that was not a concrete directive that we need to do because if it is, I would know about it from the chain email since I am staffed to the project.

I have no feelings towards her whatsoever and have been nothing but very professional in all interactions.

Was wondering best way to set boundaries from the start?
