So, I'll just agree with Joe in saying you are absolutely wrong about that. Quickly (cuz I've got to get to a condo board meeting tonight) -- I meant to post this story a few weeks ago when both subjects came up, both subjects being (1) what constitutes a hostile work environment -- and (2) Paul Shaffer. I used to work at the polls every election. At my old place, in the late 1980s or early 1990s, two noteworthy people used to come through my line: One of them was Paul Shaffer's brother-in-law. I actually got to meet Paul in October 2007 at an event at Lincoln Center celebrating Neil Sedaka. Paul was very nice, and the only thing I could quickly think of to mention to him was how I used to "serve" his brother-in-law at the polls. He told me that the brother-in-law was there at the celebration, but I'm not sure I would have recognized him. The other person who used to come through my line was the woman who won the Supreme Court case about the definition of a hostile work environment. I remember her first name was Catherine and I believe that she worked at the FCC (or perhaps another small federal agency), but a search didn't help me pin down the information. What's relevant to this discussion is that she herself was never harassed, nor was her job/career (she was an attorney) threatened or even affected. She just didn't think she should have to work in a place where "everyone" was sleeping with each other and trading sex stories and favoritism occurred as a result of it. The Supreme Court agreed with her. End of story. Probably not that interesting to anyone but me. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
