Today, I started my new job. Not even 2 hours in did some old man ask me where I live, what's my number, and if I was interested in being with him and his friends. This guy is at least over 50 and works with me. I left my old job because some old men kept asking the same things. FML

Hey! wow this was actually posted. I work in an apprentice, I do business and admin. I am only 19 years old. I have taken it up with my office manager and HR. These guys are just creeps and have been told to stay away from me. For those who say "well you must be doing something" I am not. I dress in jeans and a top, nothing is on show, and even if it was, it does not give them the right to ask where I live and that. I have never given out where I live. I actually have a boyfriend, and if they ask me out, I do tell them, but even if I was single it is none of their business. Thank you to everyone who did back me up, and to those who are saying I must be doing something, please just leave, I do not have time for your comments. I am not to blame here, the guy was, he is married, (could tell from the ring on his finger) and if he has kids, he should be so ashamed! I am only 19!

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

The constant for OP was her being a female, that's usually all it takes.

I worked in retail for four years. Got stalked. Got kissed. Got grabbed. And if you tried to politely decline, it simply encouraged them as you being "hard to get". All the girls had their predators at the store, and some of the men.

I am literally a housekeeper. I clean toilets and puke all night. I have my hair pulled back and look like hell by the end of the night and I STILL get hit on. Some people just don't understand boundaries.

Document everything. I know most places don't allow recoding devices, so don't record him. Dates, times, what he said exactly, and your response to him. All written down as neatly as possible. Then take it to HR.
