What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Massachusetts
I'm employed in a small high-tech company (15 people) for the last 20 months. In general I like the company, my manager is okay, he's been with the company for years and is new in managing people, which in my opinion could use some training in dealing with people. For example, on more than one occasion, he commented that I have a leaning disabilities, I'm dyslexic, and I have metal disabilities. Each time he mentions this besides getting angry, I keep my mouth shut, tell no one and avoid him as much as possible. However, now he's mentioning this to me in front of co-workers, which is humiliating and every time I just want to storm off.
In another occasion, I was forced to watch a clip from the animation movie Zootopia comparing my learning disability to the clip. No where in my 25 year career have I've been treated like this even by some terrible managers. I know in general a manager can say just about anything and treat you like crap if they want,.
So my question is should I speak to him about his behavior or talk to his manager/ HR or just grin & bear it and look for a new job? Lastly, I've never been tested for any type of learning disability, because no one( family, spouse, work) has ever commented on this.
Thank you
