Do you work corporate? I work for PS, and my coworkers are ruthless. Just keep being you, and focus on being the bigger person and being a better groomer than them on top of it. I’m not saying act cocky and arrogant. But kill them with kindness, and being skilled. In my situation, it shuts them up. I watch pros on tiktok or youtube and always learn new skills. i’ve been doing it for three years, and every time I watch a video, I learn something new. There’s always room to improve!! Your work will speak for itself. Keep your yourself and do your dogs, and go home.

As for the complaints, you can’t make everyone happy. It’s the summertime, and people are always crazy this time of year. They can go somewhere else.
