Dont just give in, ask for a private meeting with him to discuss exactly what his beef is. Get your shit together as far as facts and evidence to back up your position and see what happens. Document the meeting and outcomes. If he still insists on his position go higher with your meeting notes and evidence. Put the foot up his arse and see how he likes it. Make everything professional and not personal. Keep calm.

Find one, two friends and start own small company. Me and my wife did so 4-5 years ago and now we have so much contracts that we have to decline some of new ones. Of course sometimes there is smaller income, have to pay taxes, health insurance, etc... BUT the most important - you're master of your time :-)

@helloworld we had a one-on-one meeting and that's when he made up his reasons. Anyways it's just a "pays the bills" kind of job to me, not that I would fight for.

@witek that's the other thing I'm thinking of, thanks for the advice

Do what @helloworld said and own that motherfucker. He's probably an incompetent piece of shit anyway just going after what looks like an easy target. And yeah, stay as calm as a Hindu cow 🐮 while doing it... it rattles them.

@novarol sorry to hear about all that. Sounds like a tough spot to be in... If you're not invested, I'd definitely start looking elsewhere, but that's me. It's nice to feel appreciated for your work

Everything is going as planned
Boolean Logic....
Past 3 years I've been working 1pm-9pm instead of usual 8am-4pm at our company, no issues, I'm the only developer on the projects I work on, tasks delivered always on time, meetings with PM always afternoon, etc.
Few months ago company hierarchy changed and the new operative manager started to harass me about this with made up reasons (not working 8 hour or not working at all) and he doesn't care about the fact that my projects might be the only ones at the company that never missed a deadline. He even turned some of my colleagues against me.
So now I'm thinking about to quit this job and go freelance or find a remote job. Am I doing it right?
