So yea...wow...
This is only my 2nd day back on the job. Im restricted to light duty since my ribs are still recovering from my accident, but i can do most of my duties.
So anyway, i get a call to go to another dept and set up a network line and workstation for a new girl starting. So ok, this is a pretty standard thing, i dont think anything of it. I meet her, introduce myself. Shes young, cute, maybe 23 or 24. Lots of people aruond that age working here. So im doing my thing under her desk (my setting up equipment thing
, not anything else). I have to lay down to really get at the wiring access ducts running around to connect her to the network. So again, im focused on what im donig, when suddenly i feel a foot on the inside of my ankle.
At first i thought it was an accident, so again, directed my attention back to what im doing, but then her foot slips under my jeans and is rubbing my ankle and leg pretty suggestively. So now im thinking and try to finish up as fast as possible and GTFO out of there.
I get everything going, and as im packing up my stuf to leave shes making small talk, TOTALLY giving me looks and making it pretty obvious she has somthing on her mind....and im wearing my WEDDING BAND. Theres no way she could have not seen it, i just think this chick doesnt care. This one is nothing but trouble.
So i tell her, quietly, not wanting to draw attention because we are in a room full of cubicles "look, that action under the desk, not cool. Im married. Your new, as in first day on the job new. Im flattered but find someone else, im not interested."
With that, she jus smiled at me, almost like she was expecting that. But it was more like a fiendish type of smile. Needless to say i could tell that didnt deter her, so i GTFO and went back to my office.
I told my boss about the whole thing, and when we got done with the stupid guy jokes about somthing like this, he asked me what i wanted to do about it.
Now, im being too nice here i think. INitially, i said id let it go but if it happened again id like to go to HR.
He said i shld be careful, because if i let it go now, she may take that as a sign of weakness, or that worse, im just playing hard to get. And in fact she could turn aroudn and say if i DIDNT go along with things she'd cry sexual harrassment and id be screwed anyway. Hes apparently seen it happen with ex employees here.
Sooo....this is awkward. I think im gonig to go to HR this afternoon...but really....as a guy, im not sure how the hell im supposed to say some girl is chasing me like this....Never had to complain about somthign like this before....or ever get chased in such a way before....so im a little unnerved by the whole thing :S.
Ive got a meeting in 1 hour. I'll advise on how it goes.....wish me luck.
