What to do?
I work with one of those people that likes to touch when passing. It was at first shoulder, then stomach. Just a quick stomach pat/smack... HEY!... when your arms are up in the air (to make you flinch type of thing). The past few days have been a chest pat. "I" see my body changing so it is most likely others do too. The "pat" has gotten softer and feels more like a "touch" or "feel". I feel 100% comfortable where I work for the time being as it is getting colder so I can bulk up on my clothing and have done so by wearing a long sleeve shirt over my normal short sleeve shirts and my uniforn shirt over both. I "sag" my pants a little so my butt isn't so pronounced and looks droopy, or flat. Basically I wear my pants right around where my butt starts to round outward to help flatten the look.
If he does it again I will say something but this guy is also my "mentor" showing me the ropes of the job and has a lot of experience and has been there for 20+ years. I have to be stern but delicate on this matter. I need the job, I need his wisdom, just NOT his "touch".
I'm not the type of person to go to a lawyer and DO NOT want to get the guy in trouble.
There was recent lay-offs and I KNOW he was 1 of the reasons (aside from my work, ability, experience) that I was able to keep my job.
People who have been there longer were laid off in favor of me?
