what do you do when an associate/VP tries to make you look bad in front of your higher-ups? In my specific case I actually did not make any errors in my work, but they were trying to play a "prank" on me.
Any advice on if this happens again? I usually can take a joke but I don't want to look bad in front of my MD.

Welcome to the terrible culture of IB
Get respect or be disrespected
You need to earn his respect and show him who's boss. Seduce his wife and fuck her. Make sure to take a pic and insert in the middle of the next pitch book you send to him for review.
Guarantee no issues with him after that.
Love this!! 🤙
I would call the staffer and literally ask the same question you asked here. Then I would set some time with the MD and explain.
Start an all out Guerrilla War!! Take no shit from anyone. Motherfucker wants to make you look bad? That motherfucker makes himself a target.
Meaning accidentally buy some stink bombs and a fish carcass. Break open the stink bombs in his desk. And watch people look at them all nasty all day.
A Fee days later have some Prostitutes leave messages with the MD concerning the motherfucker who made you look bad.
Then surreptitiously send a transparent plastic fillable candy cane of real Dog Shit by courier to their boss. With a card that say’s Greetings you greedy Mother Fucker!!
All kinds of shit you can do. Especially if they have a spouse. 🤷🏽♂️
Creativity is king.
