My boss(Chinese) asked me several times to lunch out with him, I said no each time. But he still kept asking me the same thing every time I had meeting with him alone during 10 months. He showed angry every time I said no. Then he asked me that don't you want to be a manager? I said I want to get promotion, but I won't go out with you for lunch. he said you will someday.
He let a co-worker take over part of my leadership which I was not happy about. He criticised me in break area in front of people from other department.A lady was there told me that she heard my boss is very harsh to Chinese women. He asked me lunch out again 2 weeks ago, I said no again. He just promoted the co-worker as a manager a few days ago. I feel it's very unfair, I did all the new and complex projects, the co-worker doesn't have much experience, just does all the paperwork.He gave me a good raise though, which I think I deserve it. I was thinking he won't ask me again since he already favered the American co-worker, but I am not sure if he'll ask me again. If that happens, what should I do?
