    Good for her, nothing like a strong woman. I agree you should take the matter of this idiot to the higherups.

    Kudos to the secretary. Nertz to the doofus, though. I'd say that could be grounds for filing a hostile work environment complaint.

    Great line. Unfortunately most industrial diversity training is happy just to keep the racial goonisms down to a dull war. I never expected my machine shop days to be pleasant with two of the macho bullies referring to me as the skirted queer almost everyday. (The only reference suitable on a family forum) The day came when the CEO hired a very young, well proportioned lady as his executive assistant. Her trips through the shop were usually well noticed by the two goons drooling over her, and trying to cozy up. One day she came through at the end of the shift as we all had changed into street wear (me kilted) waiting to punch the time clock and head home. She stopped in her tracks and came over to me and said quite loudly "Clan MacNeil is it?" and I replied " Yes, it is my family tartan." One of the bullies piped up with " Miss Campbell, you like men in skirts?" She yelled it is not a skirt it is a kilt! I am a Scot and that is what real men wear. And Clan MacNeil has been known to have some mighty warriors." That ended the "skirt" comments. ( A compliment from a Campbell - yes.)

    That just shows you how clueless some people can be. He was so clueless, he didn't even know that he was clueless and believed that everyone else thought the way he did.

    Good for her!

    Ok, the secretary sounds like a very nice lady, glad for all that... I don't care what the fishnet guy's problem is. I'm upset about this. We all know Nighthawk by now. How does HE! get an office?
