This happened to me OP and all I can say is don't take it sitting down.
Where I used to work, a senior manager for eCommerce was employed. Everything was cool until one day, about 2 weeks into his employment I was outside with him having a smoke with him. Later that afternoon, I was minding my own business when out of nowhere he starts to lay into me. Agressively! Wtf! Everything was perfectly normal like an hour ago.
The abuse started getting worse (and often with physically threatenting demeanor to match) - often putting words in my mouth about how I fucked up 'x,y or z' task which I knew was utter nonsense, as I was doing everything right but he wanted to warp things to his own liking to make me look bad (which i'm guessing he would blame on me too if it hurt performance). I am quite and have respect for company time. I just wanted to get on with my work but he'd go out of his way to make life as difficult as possible.
I thought I had entered the twilight zone couldn't figure out why he was suddenly being an asshole then it hit me, mid-morning before it all started there was a wonderfully good-looking woman who approached us during the smoke break, who has giving me the eyes and wanted to talk to me, much to his dismay as much as he tried to chime in, she looked at him like he was a piece of shit. I caught a sense of fury in his eyes which I igored as I had much on my mind.
Then I started noticing the trend of him becoming hyper aggressive everytime one of the prettier employees was present. I was right!
This contnued eg if there was a pretty customer he would go out of his way to try and make it a thoroughly ostracizing experience for me just so all the women in the vicinity who was the 'man in charge' to the point where I felt uncomfortable dealing or even approaching the pretty ladies, either staff or customers. I was only 18/19 and lived a sheltered life till then so didn't know how to respond to any of this.
He was an ugly, spiteful man (I think he was like 45 or something). I don't like to judge a book by its cover but in this case I will say he was ugly, bald fat and you could smell him before you could see him, if that says anything about how bad he actually smelled! He even managed to make his job ugly.
Then it happened in other places I worked after. All the guys are your best friend cause you are a 'swell guy' until you get much more female attention than them. Then it all goes out of the window. Then I realised when it comes to this kind of thing, guys are even bigger bitches than girls.
Don't get me wrong, i've never really bee interest in being 'the ladies mans' not. I was a mild-mannered geek that wanted to work hard and keep to myself but how is it anyone's fault if a lady finds someone more compelling than you?? They like what they like. As I matured I began to realise that most women are too intimidated to to liase with good looking guys anyway.
I was I matured just a little more I began to handle myself a lot better and learned that as an easy going and sensible person, it doesn't mean in any kind of soured social reception, that the was anything 'wrong' with me but rather that it's the world that is often a loathsome place.
