Is there some weird corporate checklist people get when they are promoted? my lead has started acting like a lunatic since his official promotion.

This morning he called me to try and pick at work I've been doing and was just reversing terms in his sentences, and the sentence only made sense to say in the reverse order and even if said in the reverse order it was pointless to even say because of how obvious the procedures were.

Then he was low-key accusing me of delaying work by scheduling follow ups past our SLA times, even though my notes were visible on screen showing me explicitly saying "follow up every other day". And he could also have determined I couldn't have even done what he said due to the duration of the life of the ticket being too short and the email conversation that was logged, and pretty much any other information he looked at whatsoever.

Wtf was he even doing? He's a bright guy and quick at problem solving (though he goes off track occasionally, he does correct) and he hasn't done anything like this until now. Just after his promotion. And officially getting the new job title.

He then called later to have me check some log, that I have never checked once before and implied that I didn't know where to look at all, so I opened up a random log directory before he could finish the thought and he was satisfied. He has to know that I don't where to look, and he hadn't even given me a chance to open anything. This was a brand new type of case for me to be working on, and he definitely knows that. Yet... No compliment for having known where to go before he could even finish his degrading statements. Again, first time he's ever done this.

Where is this going? Is there something I can do to get ahead of this? Whatever he's trying to do

You cannot truthfully say to Jordan Peterson You will never be a woman.

He's an old crabby Jewish woman.
