Sexual Harassment
I've been researching Title VII sexual harassment stuff lately. It's cool b/c it gives me insight into the Bill O'Reilly case. Basically it works out that Bill is a bad man. The whole Falafel/Loofa thing is just flat out disturbing. The complaint is up at the smoking gun. I've also learned to spell harassment correctly. You can only type harassment into Lexis so many times and get 0 hits before you figure these things out.
Most importantly I've learned that the best reason not to sexually harass someone is not because it's wrong. The first best reason not to sexually harass someone is because sometimes they deserve to get fired and b/c the boss was a sleazeball he's going to pay. The employee could come in late to work every day for a month and miss every other shift, but if the boss was playing grab ass by the copiers it will cost him to fire the employee.
Second best reason not to sexually harass your employees is because you don't want to be on the stand being cross examined and use a term the judge is unfamiliar with. The judge might make you explain that term to him. How great a day would it be if, besides being sued for sexual harassment, the judge stopped the attorney in the middle of questioning and turned to you and said, "Excuse me, I'm unfamiliar with the term 'hummer', explain it to the court." Check out 754 F Supp 1559. It happens.
