As long as you’re collecting your paycheck and they’re not impeding your career, is there any harm in leaving them be? The company already sees your value…that’s all that’s needed
As long as it’s not your boss or his supervisor The Who cares. Cash that paycheck.
It's called being green with envy. Just smile when you see them, knowing how bitter and small they are.
I'd think they're on shaky ground and insecure. If I know my worth and my superiors know my worth, I wouldn't give it much thought. On the other hand, depending on office politics it may be a sign to step up your visibility. Don't get angry, analyze the real reason and only take what action, if any, that benefits you, not any action that takes someone else down.
That person probably just doesn’t like you. Maybe you should take it personally, not as a commentary on your actual value to your company.
Very likely that can’t understand just what it is that you do or how you do it. Sounds like an insecure person who may be new in their career (or complete bonehead). You know your worth.
I feel this. Part of my job as a school social worker is to work w the students who are struggling with their mental health. These kids are typically behaviorally involved meaning they have a history of acting out. I can’t work with students if I don’t get to know them and if we don’t have a rapport. That takes a minute to establish. Time is on short supply when in mental health in a school setting. I work w the high risk deviant sort. My way of breaking their wall, is by playing board games, doing artsy things, or some activity that allows a dialogue without a spotlight like as if I sat in my office chair and rattled off questions- yeah that doesn’t always work.
Teachers who are clueless see this as, they just sit in their office and play games, they don’t work. Oddly enough these are the same teachers who call us over the walkie to ‘come fix so and so, I can’t deal w it.’ Errrr!
I’ll tell you what, those kids would listen to me and comply to my requests, even if they were growling while doing so. That was my satisfaction. They’d ignore their teacher, principal calls me to go and get such and such student, student comes w me -no problem as I turn and smile at the teacher. Those were long days
So why didn’t you say anything? “That’s rich coming from you” “good grieve…is that how you speak about your colleagues” “is that so…tell me more about your perception of my role, what do you do all day?”. Literally could have said anything. “You know I can hear you right? Was that the intention?” If you get paid a huge chunk and can’t have a witty comeback to a situation like this maybe you do just sit and not do anything and that’s ok - you’re living the dream 😴

Huh to the home thing? What do you mean?🤔 AGC1 - aggressive? Are you white? The endless white people need to be “polite”and “kind” and not just say things as they are is very strange to me. While simultaneously 💩 on the world on a global scale 😂 I gave advice on a myriad of responses that he/she can use next time, people need to grow a backbone.
"You know I can hear you, right?"
This happened. I called him out on it. He's off my Christmas card list now.
Every one knows them for who they are. They have said the same about everyone else. They cheat, lie, exaggerate and always envy those who have it better than them. They know your worth and hate you for that. You didn’t do anything and the only day they will relax and be quiet will be when they exhale for the last time. Continue your journey and do it with a smile.
If they're not the ones writing you paycheck, I wouldn't worry about it. Align yourself with leadership and you'll be fine. Haters gonna hate, players gonna play.
Time to bring HR in.

Definitely not
I have lived it and seen it so many times. When you get out of your home or when you know you will interact with others (probably in a remote job), you have to take these type of circunstances as a given. Human relationships are messy. People bring with themselves all sorts of existential issues. So, what to do?
Anchor your self in who you are. (you know you bring value to your company)
Do you job as best as you can for your own enjoyment.
Take the comments as they are: a regular occurrence to everyone who has ears)
Embrace adversity and learn to ignore the “problems” of others specially when they want you to carry them.
when you ignore, avoid and shine above all those circunstances the voices fade, the malicious people trip in their own malice and stupidity.
Lastly, connect with people who has similar values to you. That helps you to see that the other “reality” they want to sell you is a lie (gaslighting).
And at all times live your life the way you need and want. These will shall pass…
