Deal should have been, if you’re not going to do this temporary job in your allotted time spot and do it without biching then you get to stay home, without pay of course. Caving in this BS is a big part of the weakness and failure this country is experiencing today. Also bad for morale of the your company. Bad, weak employees need to up their game or get out of it.
I worked in a machine shop and they had a girl running the large drill press. She was told to tie her hair back when running the press and she did except for one day. On that day she forgot and her hair got caught in the spindle. It wrapped her hair around the spindle then tossed her against a cabinet. It pulled her skin off her head and part of her face before she dropped to the floor. One of the other machinist guys saw this and ran over and shut off her press. Called 911 and the docs at the hospital replanted her skin but had to cut off all her hair from the skin. She came in to work the next week and took off the wig she was wearing and put it on a nearby table. I guess she figured the press wouldn't take her hair anymore. But she was bald for several months after that.
The issue is they don't want to do it. Harrissment is just the first thing to come to their mind to get out of it.
It is a lot of how they killed GM.
My post was for men to heed if they want to keep their jobs in today's workplace. I did not make the rules nor am I responsible for the way "some women act". In the work place I have seen men unjustly fired and I have also seen far, far, more of them "justly fired". Unlike you I am old enough to remember "the way it was" in the "bad old days" where women often had to "bed" the male boss if they wanted to keep their jobs. That is why in a way I think todays rules , although now at the other extreme end of the spectrum, are still better than "the way it used to be".
I agree but I ain't the ringmaster of the circus and it ain't my monkey.
I'm not as young as you incorrectly seem to think I am. You're not the only one who's 'been around the block' a few times or has decades & decades of experience in various workplaces or in life in general. Your contention that "women often had to bed the male boss in order to keep their jobs" is ridiculous & is mostly an urban legend, not near as prevalent as some proclaim, once we got out of the 1950's & has relatively little to do with this day & age. How many women can you list that you have actual knowledge of that found themselves in that position, compared to those, to your knowledge, who never did? Enlighten us with facts & specific cases, pls, not rumor perpetuated by tales form Hollywood productions, water cooler or cafeteria chatter, the neighborhood grapevine, or other such unreliable sources. Additionally, if you believe that any female who was the recipient of the phrase 'C'mon, put some muscle into it' has a legitimate & actionable sexual harassment case, easily winnable, as you put it, then your beliefs are ridiculously & unreasonably restrictive when it comes to our 1st Amendment rights. I hope you never had any role in H.R. or in any other company position & was responsible for implementing such ridiculous policy, rules or regs. In case you haven't noticed, you're the one & only in this thread who has the opinions that you do. That should be a clue to you that perhaps your perspective on the matter might be well served with some re-revaluation.
Well thank you for insinuating that my post was a fabrication. In reality I have seen a lot of men fired and recently. Just before I retired back in 2012 I saw two men fired for sexual harassment at two different companies that I worked for. The men in question were brutal people who even their male companions loathed and we all cheered when both men were fired for harassing the women. One was a supervisor. Both men thought they could get away with sexaul harrasment of the females that worked there. The females in question went right to management as was their right to do so. And we all knew that the females were not exaggerating or making things up. I was surprised both men actually got away with it as long as they did. Witnesses sealed their doom as they were dumb enough to brazenly do it in front of other people.
You have not stated "why" management ruled in favor of the young man and I am now assuming he was male as you do refer to the employee as "He".
None of that has anything to do with your prior allegation that women have to sleep with their male bosses in order to keep their jobs, which I asked you to substantiate with factual knowledge of such occurrences. I notice that you didn't even attempt to address that request & I have no doubt that we all know why. I suspect that your new claims carry the same factual weight. I'm happy that you've apparently played no role in the moronic & unreasonable implementation of any of the modern day policies that limit the free speech of any employee while addressing another, as I'm sure that you would've told us all about it if you had.
Becarefull he now knows he can cry to hr s as get what he wants. I have been in this situation with another employee. Only talk to him when you have to only when needed for work act like he is not there no hellow good by how’s the family or what sports team is doing. If he try’s to engage you in small talk act like there is no one there don’t respond except for work related stuff. It will drive him crazy that no one will be his friend . I seen them quit because no one will talk to them
They did him a favor and saved the company a workman's comp claim. Maybe they should have given him a hair net.
One of my best friends has a son with Asperger's Syndrome. He is a mental health counselor at a hospital and very good at his job. He also rehabs houses and turns them into apartments that he rents to travel medical people that work in the same hospital that he does.
Now you are twisting what I originally posted. I never said that today woman are often required to sleep with the boss, that was the way it was in the past and that is common historical fact and now that we have laws against this today it much better than it was in the past. All women and many men would agree about this. No one should want to go back to the past.
I was a facilities manager with an admin section comprised mostly of females.....my maintenance departments were (at that time) all male. The women filed a sexual harassment complaint with me that the men had 'girly' calendars in the shops. Of course I had to have them taken down.
Elvis has left the building....
You can lead a man to knowledge but you cannot make him think. I could have posted a picture from the 3rd Reich but I will not stoop to your level.
Your call cannot be completed as dialed.....please hang up, check the number and try again
After reading some of your other comments I wouldn’t be surprised if the other worker commented on his kitty nature or referred to him as an English cigarette. Guy to supposed guy, that doesn’t rise to the nature of harassment to me.
