FML - The follow-up

Today, we got a new employee at work. I said hi, and told her that if she needed help figuring out our computer system, then to give me a call. She promptly accused me of sexual harassment and filed a complaint against me. FML

I agree, your life sucks

You deserved it

OfficeDroneWoman Say more :

OP here. Some of you noticed it said "woman." Yes, I'm a woman. That's why her complaint made no sense. Glad to report, though, that after a couple days HR got back to me and said I was off the hook, and told her that if she makes any more accusations like that, she'll be fired. She can't even look me in the eye now.

People who rush to get the top comment... I love to hate them

Yeah I'd definitely avoid her at all cost OP

Doesn't it say OP is a girl? So technically OP could fight back by saying she isn't into women

br00kr | 22

#5594923 - Wednesday 24 July 2013 12:14

I just said that because I am shocked by that. I didn't rush to get first comment so please stop raging at me.

Love how in your profile you said you love all your comments to be uplifting.

We all love how you accuse us of overreacting when youre the one who checked someones profile to make a comment against them

So any man could do the same thing? "It's not sexual harassment, I'm gay"

br00kr | 22

#5595054 - Wednesday 24 July 2013 01:07

And who are you? Unless you are one of the people my sister harassed yesterday and the day before I am dreadfully sorry.

#5595061 - Wednesday 24 July 2013 01:09

The old "my sister/cousin/friend was on my account and said weird/mean things" excuse. A classic.

If this girl acts like this at work, which is scary, think about how she is outside of the work place. If/when she goes out, imagine a guy just saying, "Hi." She'd have a bouncer kick the guy out for being too aggressive towards her. Yikes!

Niceness has become so rare it's sometimes mistaken by flirtation

etishuman22 | 32

#5595121 - Wednesday 24 July 2013 01:45

I've unfortunately been mistaken for flirting with people when I was being nice, too. So you are completely correct, friend!

are you coming on to him?

AKGirlinSD | 20

#5595711 - Wednesday 24 July 2013 12:04

65 and 66 are correct. If you offer a helping hand or being nice, it is considered flirting. Why can't people just thank the people offering help instead of accusing them that they are being hit on? They should feel so lucky someone is willing to give them help.

Epikouros | 31

#5595747 - Wednesday 24 July 2013 12:37

I like to thank people by offering to lick their genitals, but my kindness isn't appreciated either.

#5596075 - Wednesday 24 July 2013 05:00

You'll truly never know, will you, #107? ;) I don't even know. I was trying to be funny, but I don't think I quite got there. Where's my damn coffee? It's too early for me to think this hard!!!!

Jnerdy97 | 13

#6549872 - Tuesday 1 March 2016 10:47

To me the only reason niceness is rare now is because of stuff like this. So I agree with the people who so say niceness is taken as flirtation nowadays. It's so hard to be nice.

Don't tell girls at work you wanna show them porn on the computer, bad form.

These two replies highlight all the worst types of comments on this site: the ignorance of sarcasm followed by a superfluous correction that does not improve or add to the conversation. I should also include this comment, which in the end, is just useless criticism of others.

I think the gender of the OP is important in this case.

#5594762 - Tuesday 23 July 2013 11:06

As long as you didn't make any references to making your floppy disk a hard drive, I really don't see the problem.

Steve95401 | 48

#5594796 - Tuesday 23 July 2013 11:15

OP is a woman, by the way.

rg350dx | 29

#5594841 - Tuesday 23 July 2013 11:32

Run a sniffer to see if her ports are open.

rg350dx | 29

#5594851 - Tuesday 23 July 2013 11:38

Help her practice her fingering so she knows how to work sticky keys.

If you work there a while i bet they'll believe you over the other person. No worries OP

By FlyingLeumer | 19

#5594764 - Tuesday 23 July 2013 11:06

She sounds just a bit touchy. I'm sorry OP, you'll get around the bogus claims though.

TheOnlyKittyKat | 15

#5594797 - Tuesday 23 July 2013 11:15

Maybe she's one of those girls that think everybody wants them.

FlyingLeumer | 19

#5594804 - Tuesday 23 July 2013 11:17

This is a possibility, but still doesn't warrent unprofessional behavior

TheOnlyKittyKat | 15

Oh I understand that, but I'm just saying "bitches be crazy".

nightbirdblue | 27

#5595069 - Wednesday 24 July 2013 01:13

Maybe she just likes to make lawsuits, so she never actually has to work. She could also just love causing trouble for other people.

And that comment just happens to come from a girl wearing pretty much nothing.

etishuman22 | 32

#5595035 - Wednesday 24 July 2013 12:57

I think she's a troll. And that she doesn't actually exist. But you looked!

#5596686 - Thursday 25 July 2013 12:11

#62 exactly! Then complain that they get all the wrong attention, oh gee. I wonder why. Lol

By Abbbiiieeeeeeeee | 16

#5594766 - Tuesday 23 July 2013 11:07

Sheesh! People seem to have forgotten what it is for someone just to be nice to them with no hidden meanings behind it.

simplysarcastics | 23

#5594839 - Tuesday 23 July 2013 11:31

I agree its like you cannot be nice without people thinking you want them. Smh

TheOnlyKittyKat | 15

#5595089 - Wednesday 24 July 2013 01:25

Or honk. Whenever we're out, my friend flips off cars that honk, because she thinks they're honking at her.

By bazingabitches | 17

#5594768 - Tuesday 23 July 2013 11:07

I can't see how kindness would warrant accusations of sexual harassment.

TheOnlyKittyKat | 15

#5595091 - Wednesday 24 July 2013 01:27

Because some people take politeness as, "I think you're so hot and I want you."
