I could use some guidance.

I have been at my new job for almost a year. When I came to this job my new boss was so nice to me and we got along great but she started treating the lady that was already in the group with disdain. That lady resigned and moved on. Her replacement was hired about a month ago and now the boss is really nice to her and treating me with disdain.

My boss invited me to lunch and spent the entire hour telling me a couple of things she thought I had not done well. She was so venomous when telling me her grievances that I did not eat one bite. I agreed with her that I should have handled the one issue with more urgency. With my workload it took me 3 days to get the issue resolved when, in fact, I should have handled it on day 1. I am not perfect and can admit when I make a mistake.

The second issue was that she felt I was on my personal phone too much. Honestly, this caught me totally off guard because this is simply not true. I got my phone records and was able to determine that I am on my personal phone 5.4 minutes per day during working hours. She was really upset with me when I presented her the factual data. She sent me an email stating she did not care for me "taking the time to send her the data and that the matter is closed to further discussion and to move on."

Standing up for myself has never been my mode but this time I felt it was important. Now she is picking apart absolutely everything I do. And, you can cut the tension between us with a knife.

My question is, should I just start looking for a new job? I feel that when something like this happens it is almost impossible to get the relationship back on track and that she will hold this against me the rest of the time I work for her affecting future raises and promotions.

I could really use some guidance as I am way too into my emotions at this time to make decisions.
