Have you ever documented your manager's interactions/actions? in a work meeting, I witnessed my manager who wasn't completely honest about another co-worker, should I tell my coworker or see how things play out?

At an old job, I had to screenshot interactions with my manager because I felt like he was being rude and inappropriate, I never had to use them for anything, it seemed it was a isolated moment, but I needed proof to protect myself

Depends on the kind of relation you have with your coworker. Do you think he can keep things to him/herself?

Yep. I used to have to do it all the time at my last role. It was honestly exhausting but I am glad that I did it.

How can I handle this situation without making her mad but also not letting her step all over me?

I posted this somewhere else before I remembered that I am in this bowl :) so, I changed jobs 6-7 months ago and I am realizing it is not a good fit. Leadership seem to not want to hear the truth so people tell them what they want to hear and if you don’t middle management gets pissed at you. I am seriously thinking about looking somewhere else. My question is how do you answer the “why are you looking to leave” question without bad mouthing your current company?
