How do you deal with/confront casual misogyny at work? My company doesn’t have a “handbook policy” on this (we’re small, like 50 people) but one man in particular gets away with way too much and is creating a toxic work environment. I’m looking for advice on how to shut it down from the source.

I started working for a new law firm, much larger than the firm I was working for previously. The main attorney that I work under had noticed some mistakes I was making (I am a NY paralegal who took this position with the understanding that they’d be teaching me NJ and NYC real estate). Anyways, the attorney decided to tell the HR manager about the mistakes I had been making. Rather than HR discussing with me, the manager told my dramatic coworker to tell me..how should I handle this? Very hurt!
