I have a new manager who has the mind of a 12 year old boy I am the youngest and he’s the oldest at my work I have been given the silent treatment for over a month and I’m just feeling depressed and alone and went to my HR lady she didn’t seem to take my side and she said “ you might need to quit to show him he’s lost a good staff member”. I then got ambushed and she turned on me and wasn’t supportiveI had a break down went home for the weekend and then came back to work for a ladies lunch she was there I was so depressed I couldn’t acknowledge her. So she called me a bitch behind my back I did turn around and say really but she already had her back to me and ever since I have been applying for jobs and plotting along I had my review with the owner and he said he highly doubt she would say that and has gone and not believed me. So I’m done but I work in a small town and I can’t afford to quit I need help because I’m broken.

Hi, welcome

The silent treatment can be for a variety of reasons overall, but if used in a manner that is designed to hurt another person then it can been seen as emotional abuse. The hard part of this if fact is- that they are your boss and other people, unless they too have received such silence against them, wont believe you of your account. This is the difficulty working under such a person.

Being your boss and the support they have received from that HR, I would think there is little chance of finding common ground.

Find another job asap. There arent many bosses that have professionalism, training nor tact.
