New job made awful by manager

Hi everyone
I finally landed a job I've wanted for ages. I lived my old job and the people there a lot, in fact my old job was like going to meet my foot was awesome, however the hours weren't very socialable and the pay wasn't great. So I took
this new Job with the hope of loving it just as much and liking my colleagues. I think I am a very reasonable and likeable person and get on well with everyone. Anyone the new office has just 3 of us which is a lot smaller than I'm use to buy anyone 1 out of 3 is the office manger. She has moved from another branch and just been promoted. She is vile . She barely trained me , speaks to me like im a child, patronising, demeaning and damn right rude and mannerless. To the point I don't even want to speak to her. She has had a couple of afternoons off and it's been amazing. I don't know if she's marking her territory or what but it's awful. I always worked with highly professional people and I have had no one ever speak to me like this. I trained people at all my previous jobs and I really made people feel welcomed and part of the team . I feel awful but when she's around other people including her bosses when they come she's not like that. So I don't think anyone feels how I feel. I was almost in tears a couple of times and I am not someone who cries easily. I just don't know what to do, I don't even feel like going to work . This is my second week so ik trying to give it a fair chance.
Anyone have any ideas or experience in this?
Sorry for the long post.

I sympathise. My boss is vile vile vile.
Had meetings and mediation. I'm in tears all the time.
The same as you, loved my old job, but less pay and worse hours.
I'm now on the lookout for something new as I don't think he'll ever change.

@whatawhataweek that's awful I'm so sorry. How long have you worked there ? How did you get to mediation, did you complain ?

18 months.
Yes complained to senior management. Numerous times. He's just a bully. Things haven't been so bad lately, but I'm at the point where I'm done with him!!!

@whatawhataweek wow 18 months is a long time . I don't think I could last that long. I hope
You done an amazing new job soon x

You sounded over-attached to your previous job.
So this one will never be the same anyway, and you won't be meeting your foot any longer.
Why not get out before it's too late?

@Daphnis156 i probably was over attached but in no means was I expecting this job to be the same in that sense. Buy this is just awful.
