  1. 1

    I’m currently working in a healthcare facility in the USA, and I’m feeling extremely targeted and retaliated against by a manager, whom I’ll refer to as A. This situation has been affecting my mental health significantly. I have a medical condition that requires me to take intermittent FMLA, which I’ve been using legitimately due to my health issues, including PTSD. However, since A was promoted about a year and a half ago, I’ve faced constant micromanagement and accusations regarding my use of FMLA. A has even questioned me about the specifics of my health condition and suggested that I might be abusing my FMLA rights to leave early. My direct manager, B, is kind but seems powerless to intervene effectively, as A is very much in control and has a close-knit relationship with the management team. I’ve tried to address my concerns with B, but it feels like nothing changes. A continues to monitor my work closely, changes my assignments negatively, and even texts me after hours to accuse me of misconduct. I feel like I’m being watched constantly, which is incredibly stressful. I’ve reached out for support through the Employee Assistance Program, but my requests have gone unanswered. I’m stuck in this contracted position and can’t afford to quit, but I desperately need advice on how to handle this situation without jeopardizing my job further.
