it's when people are generally negative and uncooperative. A passive aggressive person may be consistently late, work at the bare minimum or lower, but does not actively oppose their boss or who ever they are aggressive too. They also don't support them. They follow order grudgingly. In a relationship they may agree to do a thing and fail to follow through or complete what ever they agreed too.
lazy, unreliable, but capable of doing the job if they wanted too.
