He Threw A Hammer At Me... 06/26/2017 I was working for a renovation company, this one guy was such an asshole to me. He was so nasty, everyday. I dreaded going to work. One day, he threw a hammer at me. I don't even know why. I think he just hated women. I told my boss, and he put us on separate jobs, but... that only lasted three months. Then he was right back working next to me, making me feel like shit all day. I started calling into work, I just never wanted to go. Eventually, I left, and my boss let me collect

Because if he's not around, it's ok? 06/16/2017 "My boss used to text me at night and ask me if my boyfriend was around, I always lied and said yes. I never said anything to anyone."

When you reject a coworker's unwanted advances, and everything goes to shit. 05/22/2017 I had a job that I loved at a small community college in my hometown, at which I had done quite well and was promoted quickly. After I had been there for almost two years, a new Food Service Manager was hired. At first we worked very well together, cooperating to promote the existing food services and working together to open a new café on the campus. We had a friendly, at times mutually flirtatious rapport, and that was the extent of it; he lived with his girlfriend and I had no interest in

Sometimes other women make it worse. 05/02/2017 When I was 19 I was an intern at a huge multi-billion dollar company. One of my male managers used to make sexual comments to me, corner me in the break room, and invite me to his home when his live-in girlfriend was out of town (usually while other employees were within earshot). A female coworker had a crush on him and became jealous of the super unwanted attention I was receiving, so she reported me to a more senior manager for inappropriate behavior in the workplace. After I had to tell

Why else would we need women in the workplace? 04/16/2017 "One time I was on a work trip and my supervisor joked that the guys have it good in the office, because they only hire women that are good to look at."

When you're 16, and don't know what to say. 04/05/2017 I had my first job ever when I was 16 years old. My manager, a man in his late 20s to early 30s, used to stand so close to me that I was forced to brush against him if I moved even an inch. This happened when he was training me on something (register, the photo lab, stocking shelves) so I didn’t even have the option to work elsewhere in the store to avoid this unwanted contact. I never knew what to do about it, so I did nothing, and felt even worse for not standing up for myself.
