Should I look for a job with all female staff and managers?

Asked by Heather13 (495points) February 9th, 2017

I know that I have mentioned similar situations
Iike this before, but they are all real and very strange.

I never seek out these type of situations, nor imagine them. My life seems to be runnning on this monotone type theme that includes the same dynamics. Maybe some people have yhis type of uniqueness in their life
for one reason or another. I have two part time jobs. One is witht the same company for a couple years, but with changing head, managers. The other, I am new to. The new head manager in the first job, is totqlly and completely new to me. He is still getting to know me and my work ethic, which both managers and coworkers agree to be above standards. I love my job. Anyway, he is now doing the same things the other manager(s) I have mentioned in my previous post. He stares at me from a far, a lot. Calls my name every minute (for no real reason), fist bumps to say hi or bye, talks to me about his likes and dislikes (outside of work, like moves), creeps up on me suddenly from behind, and stands or kneels close to me. Then suddenly acts very cold and mad towards me. Just back and forth. And the most annoying thing he does is he keeps saying “sorry” if he says somehing and I correct it. For example, if he says something about my schedule that was not correct and I nicely correct it. He says “sorry” as if he needed to. Or if he is joking and I didnt catch and I respond to it not knowing its a joke, he keeps says “I’m sorry, I just kidding”. Like he thinks he has to be so careful with me.

With my new boss at my other job, its just creepy staring and awkwardness. Recently, another manager below his rank, bought the staff pizza as appreciation for going the extra mile at work. We sat in a small room around a table eating. So he stands across from us in a corner facing me directly as I sat and eat with the others. Then I looked up from my plate, and my eyes met his as I caught him satring at me. He looked at me so hard with a relaxed expression and tried to hold my gaze. I awkwardly broke eye contact and he started talking to the others and would go back and forth with his stare. Then he proceeds to move to stand directly behind me and started talking more and making random jokes with the others sitting around the table with me. He started to mention how the hiring manager does not hire good people and that she only hires people with good looks. But that she finally did a good job when she hired me. I froze and didn’t know what to say, as everyone muttered in agreement. He started to talked a little too familiar with us. And I finally said its time to get back to work. I got up and passed him by and left.  Why I being thrown into this ongoing scenario?
