A relative to the critic that is infinitely harder to deal with: The critic who’s mostly right.
How do you deal with some one who points out the flaws, inconsistencies, ignored shortcomings, the overly optimistic projections and the outright lies in a project, and is proven right 90% of the time?

Ah yes, “good old days” white guy – although you’re a great employee, we’re outsourcing your job to an Indian H-1B firm to cut costs. You also have to train your semi-literate brown-skinned replacement, who washes his entire upper body in the company’s bathroom sink as if it was the Ganges river. Can’t you see the benefits in that???
