CL, First of all, I think you handled everything very well. You don't deserve to be put down like that and you didn't just tell her what seh wanted to hear.
This morning, you calmly explained how her comments made you feel and why you are unwilling to work more hours. Well done, my friend.
Your W seems angry. She's taking it out on you, on her mother, on her job... whatever. She's angry. She also seems to have a reactive personality.
I think you should continue to stand your ground, calmly. You should continue to point out how here behaviors and words affect you. She needs to know that it is not okay to say those things to you and put you down. I believe that if you continue to tell her how hurtful her words and actions are to you, that she will become more and more aware and will eventually back down.
Is she by any chance taking any ADs? I think she would benefit.
