How do you confront an unpleasant and overly sarcastic coworker?

It really depends if your boss reacts to it or not. Let's say your boss speak to you, then give him your point of view of the matter. Imagine your boss doesn't say anything, chances might be he/she might just agree with your dressing.

Normally I am very tolerant to such people but it they are just too much, then I will speak to them directly. Hope this helps.

I would say not to. It is being nice and polite. However, that is not what I would do.

I'm always too blunt and would call the person out for it. Being a psychology major, I would also make comments about the life expectancy of people with negative personalities, authoritative parents, who likes negative Nancy's, and so on and so forth.

A negative person cannot fight a positive person. There's no fuel to burn. Sarcasm only has as much strength and power as you give it.

Dress appropriately for work. Go about your day without giving this person power over you. Do not get too involved in her negativity, but instead do your work, enjoy your coworkers, and that cloud of darkness won't reach you, unless you let it.

Don't invest energy and time fighting with a negative person. You don't win over bad habits and attitudes, you don't enter a fight, you don't don't present contact surface.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
