I have had a similar situation - my boss has actually been on the attack to threaten my career. He has stripped all my people from me and is then making statements about how I “seem trouble accomplishing the simplest taskings” when I can’t complete projects. Out of self-defense, I started making notes of every meeting I had with him and any policy that was discussed. If he gives me a verbal response to an email so I have no record of what he actually said, I send an email and “acknowledge the discussion, say what I thought I heard/understood and aske for clarification if I am in error. That way I hav e a traceable trail instead of “hearsay”. He recently tried to drive the spear home and I responded with a long list with a comprehensive history of the events that led up to it. I intimated that I considered it to be a hostile work environment and laid out specifics. I didn’t cadge it as a formal grieveance because he is ready to take another boss down with him and I wanted to see how it was responded to. The main problem did a 5 minute “down and dirty” and basically said I’m overstating/have no sense of humor/and didn’t need to aboide by it when management took my folks away. I took it to the other (who is over this guy) and we had a 2-hour chat. It may get better, but as long as the other guy has any possibility of ever being totally in charge, I’m keeping/maintaining/adding to my notes to insure that the retributions are not successful.
I know from experience that it is stressful and demoralizing - good luck and I’ll say a prayer for you.
Good for you. I will pray for you and ARCADIA, thanking God in advance for resolving your situations better than either of you could have imagined.
HTB in post 71 has an important idea; make sure you have off-site hard copies of everything.
