'I was too stunned to speak': Boss tries to earn social approval by mocking overworked employee during meeting, coworkers back them up instead of taking his side

The relationship you have with your boss is almost as important as your personal relationships at home. Employees spend more than 8 hours a day with their employers and likely rely on them with every step they take on their job. You don't have to become best friends, but it is still important to maintain a good relationship with the person who is basically in charge of your professional life.

I would not call the relationship that is being described in this Reddit post a 'good working relationship', and I hope that is going to change for the sake of OP (original poster). OP is an American woman working in a German company, and she describes the difficulties she's been having with her boss. She tells stories about how her boss keeps making fun of her and mocking her, with the final straw being him telling her that 'nobody likes her' in front of her coworkers.
