Sexual Harassment question

[Codewiz]

People do realize that the 1st amendment right just protects us from the government restricting free speech. Private companies can restrict free speech all the they want.

I love examples like above "co-workers in a relationship" yea, that never leads to problems, or is inappropriate:roll:

or an employer that provides medical coverage to its employees enforcing a no-smoking policy as being "unfair" as if smoking outside the workplace doesn't have any effect on his insurance premiums or place the burden of your dirty habits onto the backs of your co-workers.

Being civil is one thing, but a person should be able to speak how they wish. Besides, everyone has different ideas about what is appropriate and what isn't. If my friend wants to say he thinks a woman has a nice body, and some other woman he's not even talking about that just happens to be in the neighborhood hears him, I think it's absolutely crap that she would have any right to say anything.

I don't hang out with people who speak rudely about woman, nor do I become friends with people who are inconsiderate. My friend would never intentionally create such an environment at his work place or anywhere else. But anyone could accidentally slip, especially when they're not on the clock and not aware of being around anyone they know. The idea that he would be punished for such an act is complete crap.

As for being fired for mouthing off to an HR person, not a chance. Too highly recruited to be fired for that comment, which wasn't that bad anyway.

I'm offended by everything you guys have said in this thread and want you all fired.
