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
OfficeDroneWoman tells us 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.

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

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

Yeah I'd definitely avoid her at all cost OP
soccerstar1996 18
Doesn't it say OP is a girl? So technically OP could fight back by saying she isn't into women

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"

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

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

Too bad it's still illegal to slap stupid people.

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
I've unfortunately been mistaken for flirting with people when I was being nice, too. So you are completely correct, friend!
NeatNit 33
are you coming on to him?
AKGirlinSD 20
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 32
I like to thank people by offering to lick their genitals, but my kindness isn't appreciated either.

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
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 **** 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.
rg350dx 29
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 49
OP is a woman, by the way.
rg350dx 29
Run a sniffer to see if her ports are open.
rg350dx 29
Help her practice her fingering so she knows how to work sticky keys.

Haha right. I feel useless. Now I'm gonna have to think even harder!
whyisitme12 19
If you work there a while i bet they'll believe you over the other person. No worries OP
FlyingLeumer 19
She sounds just a bit touchy. I'm sorry OP, you'll get around the bogus claims though.
TheOnlyKittyKat 15
Maybe she's one of those girls that think everybody wants them.
FlyingLeumer 19
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
Maybe she just likes to make lawsuits, so she never actually has to work. She could also just love causing trouble for other people.

Miscommunication. Sucks to suck, OP.

shut up.

And that comment just happens to come from a girl wearing pretty much nothing.
etishuman22 32
I think she's a troll. And that she doesn't actually exist. But you looked!
kee_breezy32 34
#39, I agree, why would someone choose to put something like that as their profile picture on a public site like this anyways...smh!
hcollins1 18
#62 exactly! Then complain that they get all the wrong attention, oh gee. I wonder why. Lol
Abbbiiieeeeeeeee 16
Sheesh! People seem to have forgotten what it is for someone just to be nice to them with no hidden meanings behind it.
simplysarcastics 26
I agree its like you cannot be nice without people thinking you want them. Smh
TheOnlyKittyKat 15
Or honk. Whenever we're out, my friend flips off cars that honk, because she thinks they're honking at her.
bazingabitches 17
I can't see how kindness would warrant accusations of sexual harassment.
TheOnlyKittyKat 15
Because some people take politeness as, "I think you're so hot and I want you."
