What is the name of your state? MI

While talking with my the stock room manager at work the store manager came up to me and threatened me with a vulgar name and said that if I don't speed up my work that I can't work there anymore. Later in the day in confronting him on the incident he told me that he never said that and that if he doesnt have any memory of the incident then it never happened. There was a person in the room with me who heard him say it. What can I do about this?

My response:

Can you please explain how a "vulgar name" can be threatening?

You can complain to your boss's boss but that's it. Your boss was rude but he didn't break any laws.
