harrassment featuring him. It starts out with him coming up behind a girl doing prep work at a counter and giving her the ol' grope/hug. Then he says something like, "that's an example of innapropriate touching, but it's okay when I do it, because I came from a very affectionate family!"

What was funny about that is that I was working with a total douchebag that did the same crap and said almost exactly that! I really don't know how he got away with it. Part of it he was enough of a kissass to be in good with management that intimidated some of the attractive young women. But he did get himself written up and scared straight eventually. Had thay all busted him, they would have had to fire him.

I had that video link and shared it with a few trusted coworkers but didn't dare send it to eveyone. It got a little too graphic with a big length of pepperoni if I remember right. Too bad though. Had I sent that to everyone, including him, there would have been no doubt who it was about!

That kind of crap is so textbook harrassment, that it's astonishing anyone would try and pull it. That's right up there with telling dirty jokes to women, thinking it will get their mind on sex and pay off! They all know that one. That might have worked one time like in the 50's or something. Now it's just a red flag that you're a creep.
