My mom and I were looking through old family photos this weekend. I was really only half-joking when I made that comment to a guy on Tinder. I went through a phase in second grade, the first of many awful awkward phases in my life.

CornHolio posted:Speaking of sleeping disorders, does anybody else occasionally have sleep paralysis? I suffer from sleep paralysis. It started happening after I was assaulted four years ago, and it usually happens two or three times a year when I'm under extreme stress. It's really terrifying because it's like reliving that night over again.

Cakefool posted:Isn't it enough someone gets fired, does she really need to sue as well? Someone gave her a box of hangers as a gift and thought it would be okay. I think she might be onto something with her hostile work environment claim. If someone gave you a present which basically amounted to saying, "I want you and your unborn child to die a horrible, painful death," wouldn't you be kind of mad too?

Mat_Drinks posted:Unless management screwed up the response or timing of it HR will have locked this situation down immediately and unless the company is a complete gently caress up, they'll have already had standing policies in place, likely signed by both employees in question, insulating the company from any liability. That said, who knows whether it insulates the guy that did the deed, but lawyers don't work for free and you can't get blood from a turnip (which this dude sounds like one for doing something like this). Given the fact that the guy thought this was an appropriate gift for a workplace Secret Santa, I will bet there is a lot more going on that would make this a hostile work environment for a pregnant woman -- after all, most workplaces aren't friendly or sympathetic toward pregnant women to begin with. Cakefool posted:It's unlikely the intention was to distress a pregnant woman, more likely the guy is just stupid enough to think it's funny and appropriate. Giving a box of hangers to a pregnant woman is akin to giving a gold Star of David patch to a Jewish person or a pair of shackles to a black person. Everyone knows the meaning of a coathanger to a pregnant woman.

InitialDave posted:As I'm understanding it, Mr rear end in a top hat did something, she complained, the company has instantly hammered him. Unless there is some kind of history here, I don't think that the company is culpable for that. Legally, they may be, but my moral standpoint would be that they have responded quickly and appropriately to the situation, not that they are causing her to have a hostile work environment. If there's more going on than this one incident, and it's been ignored, then fair enough, but I don't believe in holding the employer responsible for an individual being a oval office. While this may be an isolated incident, I think it's worth looking into to see if there's some kind of workplace culture that would encourage and breed this sort of harassment.

^^^ I used to work in the restaurant industry so I've seen the worst humanity has to offer, and I have retained a lawyer to deal with a hostile work environment before so our experiences are much, much different. Most of my dealership comrades are pretty alright, but one of them actually DID make a rusty coathanger joke to me after I confided in him that I was pregnant, so that's why I have zero trouble believing that other pregnant women get treated like poo poo by people who think off-color jokes about unsafe abortions are funny. Mat_Drinks posted:edit, actually I think I need to reconsider my words above because I'm a dude so clearly I'm not capable of experiencing this in the same way so I may just be speaking from an rear end in a top hat place of privilege. I wouldn't call it an rear end in a top hat place of privilege, but I would agree that you are not capable of experiencing and viewing it from the same angle as a woman and I think that's something that everyone should consider. I'm adamantly pro-choice, pro-maternity rights in the workplace, and an overall feminist killjoy so this is something that I've got a pretty strong reaction to. goatse guy fucked around with this message at 19:24 on Dec 20, 2014 |
