Most coworkers made working there a breeze but the manager is somebody who will throw me under the bus if she has to and loves playing favorites.

I sometimes talk and eat together with those coworkers I enjoy and is a breeze, I sometimes miss working with them, they made the job easier.

But the manager is a person I don’t trust. So what does a smart person do in a situation like this?

How badly can they mess with you?

If they can dock your pay, or give you terrible jobs to do, forget it.

If it's a matter of belittling you, ignore it.

Also, see if there's a way to sabotage the manager.
