Fist off you need to get off of these unfounded pages, and get your material that is real, and cited by legitimate sources. Since the Republicans changed all the Worker Comp and Civil Rights laws in favor of the Insurance Companies, and Employers. Your complaints are looked at as frivolous and unfounded unless catastrophic, they have erased this topic from the work place. You might want to check that part of it out. You can't get a any lawyer to help you if your sexually harassed at work now, because they can't win the case with George Bush's new Civil Rights Laws.

if u think their adverts are cr*ap,  then u should try working for them !  i used to work in technical support,  taking phone calls to do with faulty phones..... all i can say is that there are some total freaks out there.....  for example,  one guy rang up and claimed he was being abducted regularly by aliens,  and wanted to know if his phone insurance was valid if he left the earth's atmosphere !!!  the scary thing was that he was totally serious.....    as for Orange adverts,  they have always been dead arty-farty....  remember one of their early ones - it was all in black and white,  and there was a guy with a large dead fish on his head for some mad reason - the best thing though was that Boddingtons Beer did a similar advert about a year later,  taking the p*ss out of it !    the advert i really hate at the moment though is that Boots one,  where they have all those models done up to look like they've been in a fight with a clown's make-up bag......  the slogan says 'be gorgeous this xmas time' -  well,  if that's gorgeous, then god help us all !!!

Unfortunately, we don't have your friend's information to go on here, so this is going to be a guess.\n\nDepending on what the alleged harassment was over the phone, it could have been a felony.  Felonies typically allow for arrests under circumstances that are a little less "demanding" than lesser crimes, so the police may have taken advantage of that extra latitude.\n\nI can see a few possibilities:\n\nYour friend admitted to making the call (not admitted to making harassing statements - though maybe she did - just admitted to making the call).  People admit to things like this all the time, without realizing they're putting themselves that much closer to the crime.\n\nThere was a witness to the call (you said she borrowed the phone from her boyfriend, so he might have told the police something about the call) or there was someone at the other end who recognized your friend's voice and/or heard what was said.\n\nThe police might have checked the boyfriend's cell phone and found a call from his phone was made to the other phone (cell phones have call logs, right?).\n\nAnd those things could have very well added up to probable cause to make a felony arrest.  It's not a great case, in my opinion, but it could certainly be enough for an arrest.  \n\nIt's also possible the police might even have better evidence than what I thought of, and that would only make the arrest even more appropriate\n\nAnd it's worth pointing out that he said/she said situations like this happen all the time, and arrests are made without "proof" all the time.  The standard for making an arrest isn't proof beyond a reasonable doubt, it's probable cause...which is considerably less than beyond a reasonable doubt.  So while taking one person's word about something might be enough for an arrest, it's probably going to be nowhere near enough for a conviction in the absence of any other information.

It forces the company to adopt a good employee manual and have it updated regularly; it also forces the company to establish an administrative system in which sexual harassment can be reported, investigated and dealt with.  Both require lawyers (or really good consultants) to help out.\n\nOn a practical level, I don't mean to be cynical, but a sexual harrassment case -- and the changes it causes, as above -- put a chill on collegiality.  Obviously, there are some kinds of "collegiality" you don't want.  But a charge of sexual harassment and the resulting changes can cause employees to adopt an unnecessarily formal / distrustful attitude.\n\n(My apologies for using 'collegiality,' I'm reasonably sure it's not even a word.)

Unfortunately for you the company has a right and is following the law with such a policy. This usually only applies to individuals who are blood related or are married but since there is obviously a sexual relationship between the two of you, the company has to follow their sexual harrassment policy and not allow one partner to supervise the other.

Your OPINION for "les/gay porno" doesn't matter to the authorities as long as the people doing it are legal. By the way, why are you just focusing on lesbian and gay pornography? There's PLENTY more hetero sh*t on the Internet. Why not go after THEM? Loser.

Everyone is talking about sex discrimination in the work place and I see you say one of the focuses is on rape.\n\nWhat about when a woman cries rape and the defending attorney questions what she was wearing, what she might have said to the guy to "lead him on", and her sexual past. And yet the man's sexual past (unless he has a criminal history) does not get revealed or discussed in open court?

Yeah, with how highly strung the work force is now a days,  they will probably be some humourless emotionally beaten old woman in the corner cubicle ready to scream SEXUAL HARRASMENT, which i'snt going to be a great thing for you.  My advice for the future...  if your going to do something like this again... do it on a Friday... because most people have a condition called DIGAFOF (Do I give a .... on fridays?) and might find it funny as inteded. As for cover ups... thought about calling in to work until Friday?

you have the right idea, but wrong legal concept.  It could be considered sexual harassment, but more likely, "a hostile work environment."  \n\nConsider this:  Never never never underestimate the pettiness of management.

Catching my 12 year old brother having phone sex...\nHe called a hotline and they actually talked to him and toyed with his foolishly young mind..

Then isn't the hotel making a not-so-honest profit by using their patrons as a amateur topless show? This doesn't quite seem kosher.\n\nMaybe the men could go bottomless...? Or the pool could be girls only....? Hmmm...

When I was younger, I faced this same situation and it was very uncomfortable.  My advice to you is twofold:  First, let your boss know that his comments are not appreciated and are unprofessional, preferably via email so you have proof.  Next, request a confidential interview with your companies HR department.  I guarantee your claim will be taken seriously, especially if you come with proof in hand. My guess is either your boss will be terminated after the investigation or severely reprimanded.  Most comapnies have a zero tolerance for sexual harassment as it has cost businesses millions of dollars if it goes to court.  Document everything you did to try to resolve the situation.  Use a notebook and note days you spoke to someone, who you spoke with, their title and what statements they made.  Be very factual-do not embellish.  If your company wants to bury this or refuses to correct the situation, which is unlikely, then go to a lawyer with your notebook, any emails or written correspondence and your voice recording.  The voice recording may not be admissible in court as it is illegal in many states to record someone without their consent however bring it all and let the lawyer determine what he can use or not, if it should come to that.  If you do go to court, it will take a long time so be prepared to find another job and carry on with your life.  But you have a good chance of your company doing the right thing so more than likely that last piece of advice will not be necessary.  Good luck and remember, you are protected from sexual harassment by law.

Any unwelcome behavior of a sexual nature or creating a hostile environment can be construed as harassment. I doubt you will be convicted. The judge will see the full picture. Your ex is just trying to push your buttons. You are fine, nothing to worry about.
