Many bosses and companies are very strict in terms of discipline and politically correct when it comes to small talk, do not assume everywhere is like your former company where you can just brother brother crack jokes and make insinuations of quitting to anyone you hardly know.

Treat this as a lesson learnt. Anyway so far other than stiff culture, at least there is no unreasonable behaviour from boss or colleagues in terms of work, so you should try and get use to it and slowly take your time to assess your options.
Give yourself a bit more time to see if you really dislike this place. But in the meantime start looking around for other openings.

If, after some time, you feel you really cannot take the culture or the kind of relationship you have with you boss, just move on.

You can leave this short employment out of your CV.
