    Have you ever been sexually harassed at work?

    I work customer service (very demoralizing) and my supervisor makes me feel super uncomfortable.

    A week ago she approached me while I was taking a call (my body language clearly said back da Flock off) and she started massaging me.

    I tensed up like a hedgehog, then she slid her hands down my arms and rubbed my hands.



    I don't know what to do, but I feel incredibly violated.

    Have you ever been harassed at work? How did you settle it?

    I used to work at a hawaiian fast food with two forty year old cooks, just me and them. And my manager was relatively absent so I really had no one I could complain to. They would try to touch me and asked if I had sex and said I was sexy, and probably a bunch of nastier shit in spanish. I felt really like, gross with myself.
    Think how happy we can be when we just try..

    As a person with social anxiety, this would have sent me over the edge.
    I already have a problem with people I like touching/being close to me.
    But some rando bitch, I would flip shit. Personally I would have flown off into
    a spiraling rage of bird-like screeching and voodoo dancing while showing her the
    importance of personal space.

    But if you're a person who wants to keep their job, I would explain the importance
    of personal space and then report her to a higher authority. Even though she is your
    supervisor, it's important to stress to them that you need an environment that you feel safe to
    work in.

    Why, yes. The world does revolve around me.

    At school, yes.
    I just told my principal, and I told them that if they did shit, i'd take them to the school board.


    Well.
    That ended quickly.

    I talked to my co-worker Joseph about it today, and he told me a similar situation happened with him (mind you he has a fiance) and he told her to never do that again.

    I'm going to approach my manager, and let him know because it seems like this isn't the first time.

    I just don't get how some people in the work place can be so mindless!
