What is sexual harrassment

[Drei]

Well, if he came around to do "the job", how else will he get lucky if it were not for flattery?

poor choice of words from my part)

Really I don't want anyone, and I mean ANYONE doing "the job" on either of them.

To summarise:
It's only sexual harassment because she's said no. Allegedly.

Sexual harassment is when there is blackmail or some kind of pressure, usually done by the superiors, it's a crime.

There is no harm to invite a colleague to have dinner or for drinks, I know a lot of colleagues that get married with the colleagues.

Sexist comments from other colleagues it's lack of respect and wrong. The person can have a disciplinary process and could be fired, but for me this is not sexual harassment.

I got told off once for turning my pockets inside out and asking the receptionist if she liked elephants. She said no so I was ok and she never got to see the elephant.

It's OK - he doesn't realise the allowed reaction to sexist comments can include sticking a high heel into a part of his leg or other part of anatomy....

At my last gig I walked at full speed into the disabled loo (The only one on the floor) to find myself standing in front of a very startled lady. Almost the most awkward experience of my professional life.

The most awkward was a few minutes later when she walked back in and sat at a bank of desks behind me, just as I'd recanted the tale to a colleague who had now lost all composure.

For free? He normally pays good money for such a service

Nothing wrong with paying a compliment, if they don't like it you just make a note not to do it again!

Although, would you pay a man a similar compliment? I know straight guys who would but it's not the norm.

What do you mean by paying a compliment?
