Dictators vs leaders make a difference

Recently there was a manager shift at my work, the person who became my manager started just before me at my job not that it matters. My old boss was a complete tool – it was always if you don’t do this I’m taking this away, told me he was minimizing my access to make sure I wasn’t abusing it – without any follow up or additional explanations. He would message me asking why I was working on project A for so long via a screen shot and I would reply with a screen shot showing I had moved on to another project 15 minutes earlier, petty shit like that. So I have a disability (I won’t be elaborating) and I would ask my boss at times to shift the workload for me on days where I was struggling only to be told “well just work on what you can…


Recently there was a manager shift at my work, the person who became my manager started just before me at my job not that it matters. My old boss was a complete tool – it was always if you don’t do this I’m taking this away, told me he was minimizing my access to make sure I wasn’t abusing it – without any follow up or additional explanations. He would message me asking why I was working on project A for so long via a screen shot and I would reply with a screen shot showing I had moved on to another project 15 minutes earlier, petty shit like that.

So I have a disability (I won’t be elaborating) and I would ask my boss at times to shift the workload for me on days where I was struggling only to be told “well just work on what you can but if it gets busy I need you to step up” – at the time I did not realize that this was 100% against the law and I should have reported it.

My new boss, I came to them with the same situation and was told “absolutely let me alter your work load for a couple days and you can go back to the regular work load when you are feeling better”

So I am sitting here wondering – do I report this? I know it’s after the fact (not far after not even a couple months) but it still exists and the fact I was told to do just as much as everyone else despite the fact I exceed most employees daily despite having a disability….. so I’m asking for opinions – what do I do?
