I've only just seen this as I have to avoid GOT after bad results like this as I end up arguing with people who are negative or dwelling on the things that went wrong. How you react to bad results is entirely up to you and your no less of a fan whatever way you stand but it certainly isn't worth ending it all. You have family and friends including on here who would be devastated if you took that route. Each day as it comes we can still win the league if all the teams above us collapse!

Just an update: I'm back from my parents' and my line manager has been very kind and given me the week off. He's going to ring me on Friday to check how I am.
Thank you all for your support. x

good to hear mate, what do you think you'll do on your week off?
Excellent news.

My boss has decided to restructure the company, and is taking most of my responsibilities away. I'd already lost some and I think he's going to manage me out. I posted a while ago that my wife has said she's not sure that she wants to be with me anymore. I had crippling anxiety for about 4 years, and only started feeling better about 1 year ago. I'm really scared it will come back. I slept really badly last night, my mind wouldn't stop racing, it hasn't been like that for ages. I know I need to take the opportunity to move jobs and take control, but I have never had to do it. I got a job 24 years ago, and just got promotions within the company. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
@anjelikaferrett is good at this sort of stuff mate.
What makes you think he’s trying to manage you out ?
I used to work for a firm that regularly did this and the way they did it was by piling the work on, but keeping it just below the levels where you’d be able to claim constructive dismissal.

He's basically got all my direct reports going to him now. The job he has me down for is very narrow in scope and probably doesn't justify the money I'm on. To be honest it's probably the poke I need to leave and get a job with less money, but less stress and a better working environment.

He says it's to drive the business forward. I'd be doing this job for the division rather than 1 site, and it is an area I'm strong in, but it feels like a backward step, and I'm not convinced that it's the whole of a job at the moment.
Is anyone else having to put their reports direct through him ?
If not I’d be diplomatically putting it to him that it’s making you feel singled out.

Yes, 2 other managers.
Is he the owner of the company or a SM/SL role? If not, could you not speak to HR (if the company has one) about having a review of your responsibilities etc?
Just thinking out loud, is he a control freak, as I`ve had managers like this too - don`t trust their staff and micro manage everyone ?
How about getting together with your two other colleagues and sharing your thoughts with them ( if you trust them enough )
It could be they feel exactly the same way as you and then you could all approach him - strength in numbers etc .

Nail on head, he is a micro managing control freak. I've spoken to 1 of the others and he's going to speak to HR, so we'll see. Not sure if I can work for him anymore whatever happens I'll probably look for a new job.
