Hi Jackie:
I was thinking back about my experiences with this sort of thing the
other day, and can remember the first time it happened to me. I was
about 20 or so and one of the engineers at the hospital came on to me.
I had heard stories about him being married and coming on to women at
the hospital, but didn't really pay any attention. Anyway one night
when I was working the grave yard shift the phone rang and it was him
asking if I wanted to go out after work for a drink and a few other
things. :( I didn't really know what to say or do. After hee-hawing
around for a few minutes I managed to say something like my dad was
picking me up after work or something like that. The next day I told my
supervisor, and she did something about it, never knew what, but this
guy was put on notice to leave the women alone. He avoided me after
that. Not that it was that hard, as I was avoiding him too. And there
were never any more rumors about him.
I had a supervisor do the same thing a few years later. But I just said
no thanks and after that there were no further problems. We still got
along fine, and never really had any problems.
Can't really say that I have had that many problems with it. Usually a
simple no was enough to end the problem, permanently.
Did have one guy who offered me a part time job let it be known that in
order to get the job, he expected a little entertainment. Unfortunately
for him, I didn't need the money that bad, and I let him know that his
wife would love to know what the job he offered entailed. Don't know
what ever happened to him, but needless to say I didn't go to work for
him. He did call the office one day for an appointment, but never
showed up when he found out I worked there. Hope he wasn't too
sick. LOL
