Boss claims I am creating a hostile work environment for not talking to homophobic coworkers and picking up their slack.

Even if you are the most productive employee in your workplace you will still get screwed over if the boss doesn't like you. I personally just find it funny that she had no complaints about me until after I made it known I disagreed with her firing the most productive and longstanding employee there. So I have two coworkers that make homophobic remarks at the desk (where, according to our boss we are supposed to keep our conversations “5 year old appropriate” because we are a library) and, when they laughed at me when I asked them to stop I decided to stop talking to them for anything that wasn't work related. Apparently this has made me “standoffish” and created a hostile environment.

Apparently this has made me “standoffish” and created a hostile environment. I do find it funny that these complaints only came about after I expressed disagreement with one of my boss's decisions (which happened at the end of January) and not once I stopped talking to them at the end of December.

Now I am probably going to get my first write up ever just because I don't want to have casual, non-work related conversations with homophobes who couldn't even properly complete their closing duties.

If it wasn't for the fact that there are really no other job openings in my area I would quit but I also kindof want to eat. This is the bullshit you have to put up with in these super red at-will states.
