Re: Do I need to report this? work related
Inspi, report him for sure! There is no excuse, no justification for this kind of behavior in the workplace. And you are not even pally-pally with this guy, that he can say such things as a (bad) joke.
The onus of caring about his career is on him, not you. If he's a physiotherapist he's definitely educated enough to understand that such language can lead him into trouble.

^ :k:
I have a very relaxed team at work and we joke A LOT…race, religion, sex…nothing’s really off limits. But even with what I’m around daily…I’m telling you what that guy did to you crosses the line big time! There is nothing that justifies what he did. If he honestly thought it was some type of “joke”…then that’s even more reason for him to have a “talk” with HR!
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
^ thanks paheli
I just doubted myself for a bit because its his career, and I think he does think its some sort of 'joke/chatupline', because our working environment is pretty chilled too.
I asked this other what to do and she was like whatever take it as a compliment :/
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
I watch too many movies so my first thought was that you report him and he gets fired. Soon he starts to stalk you and then very bad things ensue. :-/
Re: Do I need to report this? work related

Re: Do I need to report this? work related
And buy some mace please. :-/
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
whats mace? like pepper spray?
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
^ you must not have seen Ramayan and Mahabharat. Hanuman (Ramayan) and Bhima/Duryodhan wielded mace extremely well - it was their weapon of choice.
(OK - you can throw eggs now)
Anyway, glad you reported him.
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
Yes, I believe something like that, maybe stronger. I just wikied it :o It’s also illegal now in most countries. 
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
Really?!? Huh...I made my niece get some pepper spray for her keychain when she moved on campus at SMU last year....ya never know....
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
Why doesn’t it surprise me that someone would actually say this!
I’m glad you reported him! And the person who told you his behavior was a “compliment”…do not EVER ask this person for advice or opinion again.

Pepper spray is probably still okay.
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
Pepper spray?! In the south? Woman you need to represent! There’s a reason we got concealed firearm laws! 
Inspiron: You could always take some :faris: lessons.
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
Im glad you reported him.
I've been through something like this at work and I didn't report it the first time. Because of that, there was a second time and it started to extend to other colleagues of mine.
It was the same issue, he was a managing director and I felt bad about his career being over and what it might do in the future for him. But the thing is...if he isn't worried about it (these people are well aware of what the consequences are for such actions) then you shouldn't be either.
I reported him and after I did...35 other people followed suit. He was fired that same week.
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
^OMG. What a creep! Was he passing sexual remarks and that sort? And whoa, 35 other people?! Good for all of you for standing up and doing the right thing. The nerve of some people. =/
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
In this situation if one is worried about the career seriously, then one should talk to the person and clearly say “back off or you will be reported”.
If other person continues, or does not take the warning seriously, then go ahead and report.
I do not know why Inspiron sounded it was not such a serious matter. She did not sound too concerned.
I mean how in the world any woman will think it is a chatup line? 
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
I would have said talk to the guy first and then report..
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
Was the person desi?
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
^ Doubt it.
I'd inform the authorities but would emphasize more on the action coming as a severe last warning than anything else. Losing a job over something that could well be attributed to a single disturbing/disgusting slip of tongue incident could get pretty ugly for a guy in his position/post.
Re: Do I need to report this? work related
Why did he say that?
Maybe he wanted some physiotherapy. Jus sayin.
