Maybe, but this is a power and authority thing.
You rearranged everything in a better way with owner's approval. Owner should have supported you.
Line manager has probably been told something like 'she has arranged everything in the 'wrong' way, can I make it right again?'
Or .. line manager said 'who did this' colleague said 'it was her' shall I put it back' or just put it back anyway.
Without them understanding a. why it was in the way you suggested and b. that the owner had agreed with you.
You could have done a bit of 'here's my proposal for making it better' or 'can we try it this way here's why I think it will work'
Also line manager could have tried to understand the logic and made a decision.
If stock is regularly in different arrangements and then when tidied up is done slighty differently or rationalised, then what you did is normal.
Mind you I have been in situations where the team is dominated by 'you can only do it the way it was done before ' people who go completely mental if things change, and I've been in charge of moving stuff around and done something like put trolleys out of the way instead of in the door in the way, and one of that team comes in and says 'trolleys go there' and sometimes put them there even if you are working, then position it as 'scaryclown is not doing the work properly' even if I get everything done completely correctly.
I had to explain it to a manager once by saying 'if your colleague holds their pen in the left hand, would it be OK for them to interrupt you and take the pen out of your right hand, put it in your left and say 'that's how you write notes, not the wrong way'
Anyway, its clear that the rage was all about his game to put you in the 'wrong' box and try and keep you there. Thats partly chauvanism maybe, but most likely being a one-dimensional amateur game playing tit.
Talk to the owner and line manager together about your better arrangement, say you prefer it, say new guy can easily learn it. agree and suggest might be the way forward.
I've had these power farts from both men and women, but men do it more often i think.. one was a noticeboard fight, I rearranged the noticeboard I was responsible for to make information more obvious, and advertising separate. 6 months later I was called into a office for the extremely serious offence of 'unilaterally acting to alter official noticeboards' - what a fucking waste of time - but it was just an 'I'm the boss' tit around.
