Studied Mechanical Engineering, but been in consulting since graduating 3 years ago!

Consulting definitely has its ups and downs! I used to be more focused on RPA (Robotic Process Automation) for my clients, but recently transitioned into a role focusing on Cloud services. My day-to-day ranges from helping clients obtain better pricing for cloud services to helping with actual AWS or Azure implementation.

Overall, consulting varies greatly in the nature of the work, but as long as my hours are somewhat reasonable, I quite enjoy the variety and fast-paced nature of the projects.

Recently just graduated, but I am currently working in the Aerospace field

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?
