Let me start by saying I didn't realize you were speaking about your own experience! I thought we were having a theoretical discussion here. That changes the stakes on your end of course..

Just a question, when you say "request a 1 on 1" do you mean request to specifically speak about this? Or do you not have regular 1-on-1s with your manager already?

I think it's a concern that your manager doesn't already have or want weekly 1-on-1 meetings. Do you know if this is with all their reports, or just you?

If it's with all their reports, that's.. honestly? not a great manager.

It's just with you, then I think that's further evidence that this person does not, and will not, have your best interests in mind.

I'm sorry you're in this situation, I hope you find a good outcome!
