i wouldn't put it quite like the person above did, but i would say: there are ways to diplomatically address, deflect, or dismiss (as needed) these types of things from teammates. if what you did was good enough in your opinion, then a one-line response saying 'yeah, tried that, didn't work' is probably fine. start thinking about the politics of your workplace. e.g., think about: who do you need to keep happy in your team/dept? the answer won't be 'everybody', that's for sure. your time matters.
