(ZOEDUNE) - When I first read this, for a few seconds I thought about why Jones couldn't just leave this alone before I smartened up and thought about it from her point of view.
Even if she hadn't been working there for very long, you can't just let someone get away with that kind of harassment. It's one of those situations where if it bothers you enough, you might need to take action and so she did.
But we've all seen these cases where the employee ends up taking the hit somehow, so suspecting that something was up when she was called into a meeting with the managers is a good call and glad she prepared for it.
On the other hand, many of us know about those people in the work place who take advantage of an opportunity when they can and there's no way to know for sure, if Jones was one of them.
When it's a hard call it can be simplified and when it's easy, it's hard all over again.
this contact formon Facebookon TwitterI'm including this segment of the article for you to take action now, but recommend you read the post Charlotte Woman: I Was Fired For Reporting My Boss' Sexual Harassment on LiberalAmerica.org.
And really, just because it can and sometimes, does work the other way around; how often are sexual harassment charges thrown at this business in particular that they can't consider the possibility that it's something to take seriously? They need to take the hit. (LiberalAmerica)
