[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Male here - two or three times a year I visit our HQ and always drop by to say hello to a woman I've known for over 25 years. We always exchange a hug, always led by her. Last year someone in the office filed a complaint with HR about my behavior. The person I hugged is 73 years old and our company's assistant general counsel. When the complaint reached me my lawyer friend marched into HR and let them have it for not having asked her about it before they came after me. This is the world we work in! [/quote]

Are you kidding me? Have you been asleep for Me Too? Cry me a freaking river about your complaint. When you’ve been raped at work and hear about all the stories of women getting constantly abused and demeaned its so hard to hear about “the world we work in” and “PC culture has gone too far”[/quote]

In this case, A is not equal to B.  A is two people that have known each other for a long time greeting with a hug.  That probably does not rise to harassment (unless there is more to the story).

I am sorry you were assaulted/raped, but that has nothing to do with PP's situation.[/quote]
