you can tell HR and they will know youare moaner with no proof.  you got to have real solid evidence which you dont have.  so start sticking up for yourself.  tell hi loudly in fornt of everybody " I am not your cutie pie so back off you old fart.  if he sits by you get up and move.  give him and every person in the room the clear idea that your to good to put up with his sickness.    You gotta fight your own wars nobody can do it for you.  Then when your boss ask whats going on tell her or him.  \n\nbut if you go complian about it without taking any action first they will think "oh brother her comes a new trouble maker", and think you are over reacting becasue you are.

Why do you feel like shes going to get in serious trouble? As in shes asking for trouble? Or her boss may find it inappropriate for her co workers to be distracted by someone who is open about what she is or isn't wearing under her clothing. Take her aside one day when she is mention the comments about her "smell" and tell her politely that they are not joking and you've noticed it but you didn't want to offend her, but now it's become a problem and a distraction for you and your co workers.

That co-worker is trying to kiss butt to look so good... However, if the manager, or supervisor should notice this, the fact that he/she con't even offer any bit of assistance makes him/her look pretty bad on record...  If that supervisor does not keep note of such actions, then he/she is as biased as the coworker. \nBut your supervisor is in fact neutral, as he/she should be, you should go have a talk with him/her, or even file a complaint against the co-worker and state it as negligeant and unprofessional, Would rather show some bad attitude, than to upkeep a positive working atmosphere, and what more to make that this co-worker is going out of his/her way to hold things against you...  The fact that he/she is breathing down your collar in hopes of finding any flaw you'll do, you can get away with filing for harrassement and, in fact you can say that whatever mistakes held against you are the result of him/her attempting to intimidate you, and whatever threats that are being waved in your face by this individual.\n\nCheers!

Just come right out and ask your boss if there is a problem and tell her exactly what you've told us.  It is only fair that you should know what is going on at work.  This way you won't have to sit and wonder and make yourself crazy and it's not fair to be treated that way at work.

Not at work.  If comments like this are made at work, you have a harrassment situation.  That causes a hostile environment for the women.\n\nThe way you handle this is to politely ask the person to stop making comments like this.  Make sure you write down the time, date, the words you said, and hopefully have a witness.  Do it at least twice.\n\nIf it continues, complain to your supervisor that you are in a hostile environment.  They are required by law to do something about it.

She gave you a fingertip, you want the whole arm...\n\nShe was teasing you.  Rub one out and relax at work before you get charged with sexual harassment and have an angry husband after you.\n\nShe was sharing, not inviting.

You should worry.  You are now an accessory.  Your coworker has just pulled you down with him.  He is not your friend.

That is tricky.  What kind of history do you have with the person?  Is the person known to be violent?  What is the context?  Sometimes you should ignore it and go on.  Sometimes you should take it very seriously and seek legal help.  If you genuinely fear for your safety, have a restraining order filed against the individual.  If the person has attempted to harm you, file charges with the police.  It helps if there are witnesses.  If you are at work, let your employer/supervisor know immediately.  If you are not provided a safe work environment, you can file a sexual harassment complaint.  I know, it's not sexual; but it falls under sexual harassment anyway.

Never dip your pen in the company ink. Yes, you made a mistake about being open to your coworker. He might take this as a hint. Keep work ...work and sex related things in another place. That is if you want to keep your job.

Did you make up that question? If you're serious, don't say anything to him. He'll wonder why you're there, in the first place. And he may already know about it but is embarrassed. It's never a good idea to embarrass your boss. Keep your lip zipped. Maybe it isn't even her.

It's time for you to go over your immediate bosses head to upper management.  Before you do, I would document and entire weeks worth of instances along with date, place and time the harassment takes place.  I really feel for you and I hope your situation improves soon - God bless!

being a bully is one thing. Harassment is another. If he has crossed that line then you have a duty to report his inappropriate behavior to management.  If he's just giving you a hard time try your best to ignore the pinhead. Then.....Fire his butt as soon as you get the chance

He can't tell you who is saying it but you can ask him to talk to this person.  Perhaps they have a personal vendetta against you.  Your boss should have enough experience to help this person get over whatever it is they think is wrong. Just let your boss know that you feel attacked by all of these false charges and that you want people to take the open door policy more serious, not just complain whenever they want to.

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.

Do you realize that posting a perons name and making accusations like you did, is illegal. If this person were to find out you have done this, he would be very smart to initiate a law suit against you. You might want to consider taking his name out, and maybe not worrying so much about the sexual orientaion of your co-workers.

Absolutely there are laws to protect you, but what you have stated is somewhat vague, you should try asking a more specific questions, where did the icident take place home, work? what kind of harassment? sexual, physical,or verbal was it your boss or a coworker.
