[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1.  She need to tell them to stop so she feels empowered.  It is as simple as "stop doing that".
2.  If they don't stop, tell the manager.
3.  Manager talks to boys, boys receive a lesson, poor boy behavior stops.
4.  Everyone wins[/quote]

What makes you think the behavior will stop when a 25 yr old manager tells a 17 yr old to stop?? The 17 yr old will act sorry to the boss and rest assured the behavior will continue. And add to the pig or cow comments will be all kinds of other tattletale stuff.

This is high school teasing pure and simple -- whether it's in a workplace or not. Not sure why everything on DCUM has to turn into a legal discussion but unless you're actually filing harassment charges all the ideas here about documenting or whatever are moronic. Tell the boys to STFU or have a friend do so or have a brother jump them in the parking lot. It may be a new day but these issues are age old and don't require THIS much angst.[/quote]

Sorry, but I agree with this poster.  Not saying it's right, but do all you attorney PPs actually live in real life?

The poor 17yo girl could end up in worse shape for 'tattling'.  Not everyone has an HR department to back them up when the file harassment charges.  In an ideal world, it'd work that way, but we're just not there yet.[/quote]
