Bullshit! Find a job that pays more and quit. No need to work with a fool. Idiot bosses don't deserve my time or effort.

Perhaps a more immediate suggestion might be to look at the outcome you desire from an interaction from your manager and reverse engineer the experience. What about the encounter triggers a fight or flight response? Anger? Feeling unappreciated and undervalued? What does this experience tell you about you? How might you change the outcome by experimenting with a different responsive behavior? What do you have to lose by experimenting with a change in perspective and a shift in the conversation before seeking new employment?

Same question - coming from minority section and feeling bullied in the work space by manager. I called out their bullshit in front of another manager. Now I am getting reprimanded and some serious false allegations regarding discrimination. Obv I am assuming the manager wants to save their ass..has anybody had a way out in the past against such racial discrimination?
