Today, I went to my company's HR manager to ask what the procedure was to file a sexual harassment complaint since my boss exposed himself to me. His response was that the procedure is to "get over it." And he went back to reading. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my coworker touched me inappropriately. I reported it to HR, and all they said was, "Do you want to talk to a therapist?" FML
Today, after having finally summoned the nerve to report a guy at my workplace who has been sexually harassing me for months, I got a phone call from my boss. He said that there was nothing he could do about it, because the guy "wouldn't confess." FML
Today, I told the man I've been in love with for 3 years, who also happens to be my boss, how I felt. He responds by filing sexual harassment charges against me. FML
Today, a coworker grabbed my ass for the third time. I went to my boss to complain about the sexual harassment. He told me to suck it up and enjoy the attention, and that it was my fault for having a huge, round ass. I think it's time for a new job. FML
Today, I tried to call my company's HR to report my boss for sexually inappropriate comments towards me. Turns out, the only person I can complain to is the franchise owner, who has been good friends with my boss for over a decade. FML
Today, HR informed me that they would not be investigating my formal complaint against my boss. This after four months of relentless bullying, including calling me while I was on vacation to tell me to do work, and eliminating my position when she found out I had gone to HR. FML
Today, I had to give a sexual harassment seminar to my department. Someone put in a complaint that my example made them feel uncomfortable. FML
Today, after many years of being single, I finally worked up the courage to ask my coworker out. He said no and gave me "fair warning" that he's going to report me for sexual harassment. FML
Today, I was fired from my job for sexual harassment. I was shopping after work, and I had to get my female manager to give me a package of extra-large condoms from the lockbox. I could not convince her that I was not flirting, and she took it to HR. FML
Today, yet again, my boss whined to me like a baby over being "friend-zoned" by his secretary. Not only does he basically stalk her and make her eat lunch with him every day, she's a lesbian in a committed relationship. He suspended me after I lost it and told him to see a fucking therapist. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I don't know anything about Australian law, but I suspect it's illegal for him to ignore your concerns like that. Talk to a lawyer--at very least, the company should transfer you to another department so you don't have to work with your current boss, if not fire him.

The heart of the issue is that she was shown something that she didn't want to see in the first place. Sexual Harassment isn't a "suck it up and get over it." Once you see something like that u can't unsee it. Seek legal help and charges filed against him. Apologize for that having to happen.

So you saw a penis, big deal. I'm sure it wasn't your first time seeing a penis.In fact I'm sure it was just one of hundreds that you've seen.

If you can prove it, press charges. Since you probably can't, get over it.

I picked YDI because I think this is fake... that wouldn't happen. They would do something about it if it were true.

So your naive enough to think that out of the just over 6 billion people you know enough about humans in general to say this wouldnt happen? Yes there are systems in place in Australia for this but without credible evidence he would probably just get off, though his reputation would be in shambles, thats if he even cares that is. But it is just a penis, spend a while on the internet generally and you will probably stumble across something much much worse.....

You make a good point except for you got it backwards. Her boss exposed himself, not the HR guy.

Oh, my, such unspeakable revenge! Anything but that! Please don't throw me in the briar patch! If it were me, the flashing the boobs might be bad enough, but what would really frighten me would be if you bent over and mooned me, and then rubbed your crotchetal region all over me. Oh, the horror! Please don't ever do that to me!
