NEED HELP ! HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT
I am a female in a tradionally male field. I work in a parts department in a heavy truck dealership. I have been in this business for almost twenty years but it has always been cars not semi truck parts I've sold. My problem is that the other person who works in this department treats me very bad.He will go days with out saying a word to me and then it is usually to yell at me about a mistake. He is not in a position of any authority in this department. Part of his job is to train me in this position. He will not help me in any way. My department manager does nothing about this situation nor does the general manager of parts and service ,(after talking to him about it several times),do anything about this. I know he would not, nor has he treated any male he's work with in this manner. It is a very tense situation and very stressful. He is also the one who recomended me for this job. Its all I can do to go to work anymore. When I first started in this business I faced alot of predjudice from men but never anything like this. Can you tell me what I can do about this situation.
Thank you for your attention
Please, can someone give me a reply to this,I don't know what to do...
