I open doors for men also if there first, it is just manners.
Being patted, on the other hand - have suffered this, it is horrible. Worse if they are above you in chain of command as they resent you if you ask them to pack it in.Last edited by LadyPenelope; 3 December 2019, 15:36.Comment

So yep, don't hold a door open, don't make a compliment, don't look 'em in the eye, in fact just don't engage with them at all. Just stay in your own little box room and hope they don't forget to throw the odd fish head round the door once a day.Comment

I'm older now so it's less of an issue. Make of that what you will.
Did feel sorry for a girl recently getting a creepy shoulder-massage by the guy who signs her timesheets. Ugh.
