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

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

The next response is to file charges against both the boss and the HR manager and take them for everything they've got, ruining the company's image in the process. Odds are, before it gets that far, the entire thing would be settled out of court.

Girls expose themselves in the workplace all the time and expect us guys to get over it. We do.

How do girls expose themselves in the workplace all the time? By the way, the previous suggestion was based on "exposing himself" meaning whipping it out, so if you're referring to girls showing cleaveage, that's really not the same thing at all. I personally NEVER expose myself at work.

hey dumbass...unless you know this person...your reply is completly uncalled for and if your single I can see why...you probably push yourself on people to make yourself feel better....

depending on what industry you work in ....it's in your head that women expose themselves, women try to be comfortable with themselves and guys like you do nothing but stare cause you have nothing intelligent to say except well they do so why can't I ....jesus grow up....

You're a real piece of scum MikeHawke, you should get over yourself because you are not worth shit. The best part of you ran down the sow's leg that you father raped to produce you. You can't possibly be human!

It's weird that MikeHawke is in favour of harassing women here, and is screaming "pedo" at everything that moves in another FML...

Stop being a dick about it. suck itup and don't blow it out of preportion. It's not worth all the choking and gaging you'll have to swallow if you take it in court.

Not really, it's just a different angle. Next time the boss's penis sees the light of day, the HR guy is saying that she get herself over it. I guess they still have men in that country.

Regular australian law sys that's sexual harrassment, but since this is queensland I'm assuming no one cares. Queensland is considered backward and sexist by most of the country, or at least by everyone I've ever spoken to.
