So far off base here lmao

I blame this mostly on the doctor. The doctor should've asked you if you wanted to speak with someone about your situation, but lots of doctors prefer to just make decisions for people rather than ask.

The rest of the blame lies with the social worker, who sounds like a bad social worker. Active listening is Social Work 101, and it sounds like she didn't do that.

Maybe your doctor's office is full of people who are bad at their jobs. I recommend against extrapolating anything about these professions as a whole from your two experiences there.

Uhh...if your doctor refers you to someone else within their own practice, that's in no way a violation

If you claim Israel fully controls America

I didn't

what's the difference between Biden and Trump

A metric shit-ton on just about every single policy

I don't have a clue what point you're trying to make here

This is a popular talking point, but not at all the case. If you compare the Democratic Party platform and its membership to any time in the last 50 years, you're going to find today's party is significantly more progressive.

The "Republican Party of yesterday" was the fucking Moral Majority. The Democratic Party is absolutely nothing like the "Republican Party of yesterday."

That's unfortunately not the case. It's clear much of the US news media and corporate and political establishment is entirely supportive of Israel at all costs. If the Biden Admin cuts Israel off completely, there would be an immediate, coordinated campaign waged by many of these organizations to take down the Harris campaign and support Trump, which would be incredibly potent.

A better move would be to win this election first and then make policy change. We cannot have Trump in the Whitehouse

Because then they'd get death threats and lose their jobs. Their jobs are more important than the country, apparently

Harris's weakness with non-college educated white men is well studied and discussed in the polling universe. She does way better than Biden though with young people, women, and all non-white groups

Like I said, whether you should go to HR will depend a lot on your company culture. In all the jobs I've worked, I've had HR departments that would've taken your complaint seriously and not allowed you to be retaliated against in that way. Btw, what you're describing does sound like retaliation, which is totally a lawsuit you could pursue

I'm seeing this story on every news outlet in Chicago

OP, I'd urge you to reconsider framing this whole thing as an "extrovert vs introvert" battle. Your boss is demonstrating poor boundaries and disrespectful and inappropriate behavior, and that has nothing to do with whether she's an I or E on the Myers-Briggs.

Whether or not you go to HR depends a lot on your company culture. Either way, you need to be documenting specific comments and specific behaviors that are inappropriate first. Every time she asks you an uncomfortable question, especially if it relates to sex, write down what she asked, how you responded (that you declined to answer and asked her to stop asking personal questions), who else was present, and the date/time. Keep this in a personal account, not company. Do NOT go to HR without documentation.

We don't know how big your company is, but odds are if she's a middle manager she's got people above her already who know she's a gossip and hate that. If you have any relationship at all with her supervisor, it's generally viewed as following the chain of command if you bring concerns like this directly to them, as well.
