Trouble In The Workplace.

Postby MrSalih » Tue Feb 25, 2014 1:59 pm

Hello somalis,here's the thing.Ive recently started work at a call center,job is temporary and i plan on putting in my 2 weeks notice around may,anyway...

When im sitting at my desk their are 2 older women who act all flirty and touch me and ask REALLY inapropriate questions,naturally im a silent,keep to myself lone individual,this is the way i like it,however these women make me feel VERY UNCOMFORTABLE.

A recent incident was last week,one of the women asked if am wearing boxers or briefs then proceeded to touch the outline of my jeans to verify,i did'nt know how to respond!!! Ive explained im muslim but this seems to go over their heads,How can i report these trolls without seeming gay?

Your problem should have ended the minute they touched you at first, but you kept quite and let it happen.

tell them to not touch you.
mention whether their partners would approve of what they're doing.

try and find a seat somewhere else....try and negotiate with someone you know to swap work space.

Report it to the hr...such behavior is unacceptable in a work place. Or bone them and quit.

Salih, take SelfD's advice. Sexual harassment is intolerable. You won't be deemed gay if you report them. No is a No!
What kind of shamelessly dignity-less women are these? Specially the married one? :?
Next time be careful.
