Yup. That's the thought I have whenever I think about leaving consulting. We're able to afford so many more vacations and quality time together because of points and such. Grass is always greener though

You can pay for it, you know

What you should do when dealing with a very toxic worker that keep on sending passive aggressive messages to you as well as in group chat and email.
Things like when you answer his question he respond: I know that
Or when he keeps on saying my change requests were just minor in group meeting but actually not.
And keep on saying how hard he works when he clearly wasn’t and already underperformed compared to an intern level.

How to not let this toxic co-worker not poison me any further?
