Ethics aside, in my experience this type of character tends to contaminate their surroundings with this undirected negativity. It’s like a black hole that has no sides, only the mass of their ego. I have a friend like this, and while we are still friends and can manage that, I would never work together with him. It’s okay to be sad, stressed, angry. Not okay to spill it all over the world.
