[quote=Anonymous]I don't know how to make it clearer. Tell me if you see the difference between these two situations:

[quote]a) Office discussion of how crazy it is that people send nude pics with job applications. Person A sends Person B a question about an applicant. Person B says "are there any nude pics? You know, like that crazy situation we were laughing about? Can you believe people do that?"

It seems that a) is closest to what happened.

+1,000.

In all likelihood he thought of a, she thought of b, but agree this is nowhere near the same thing. [/quote]

Ahh, yes, but A is not at all what happened.  OP's H said  "Got any nude pics. Oops, sorry wrong chat. Jkjkjkjjkk".  It was not a conversation or inquiry into what type of information accompanied the application/resume - and even if it was, it is inappropriate to ask if the applicant sent nude pictures.  It was, in fact, a seriously inappropriate joke which does not belong in the workplace.  In our company, you could either end up fired or in sexual harassment training plus performance plan, which is exactly what should happen when people make such inappropriate jokes at work.
