I can relate to the female bullshit comment. I'm a female but I don't play like a female and I don't bullshit.

 

My former place was pretty family-friendly. My problem is as a female with a male spouse, I don't have the Stepford wife waiting at home for me with my perfectly groomed children. These guys have wives that do that crap, and they go home to their mansions and get fed and pampered. After they shit on me all day I have to come home and take care of my kids with a smile on my face.

 

I'm getting ready to put my game face on. I can't remember the last time I had to actually play, but in the old days I was the master of the game. I might not win, but I'll play. I don't have much if anything to lose at this point.

I'd seek some preliminary legal advice now.

 

Builder was spot-on with this comment.

Write down every single incident you can remember, detailing the time of day, date, relevance, etc.

 

Courts and other industrial abitrators(even if it's your supervisor's boss, or the HR Manager) are always impressed by detail. The number of incidents where you can recall exactly what was said, the sequences of events, date, time etc.

 

Builder's also right about the attitude - never let them see you're down. If someone's gunning for you, build alliances with other staff, particularly their superiors.

 

 

Also, try and think of yourself as a product. You need to invest in yourself, get what you can out of this job in terms of training and experience. Then if you ever are compelled to leave, you are a more attractive product for another business to pick up. The problem with burning yourself out on tasks for a business is often people neglect to invest some time in their personal growth - and this only further ties them to the company they're in...
