In

The prefix “in”, which means “into”, “on” or “within”, can also mean “not”, “no” or “opposite of”, therefore the prefix “in” before a word can change said word to mean the exact opposite.
Such as:
  • Sane and Insane
  • Dependent and Independent
  • Complete and Incomplete
  • Visible and Invisible
I feel like being called incompetent is the worst insult you can get at the workplace
