Alright guys……..

Get this

I have been working at this oil change shop for about two months now, when I first started there the manager was a total Jerk, to the hilt. Degrading and all. Well after a few weeks that passed, and then the asst. mgr started in on me. Then one day as we are waiting for cars to come, the asst. manager and I started talking about music, and he suggests that we all go out for drinks one night. He then asks for my number, not wanting to be rude i ablige. Big mistake. That night he texts me and says he tried sending a picture of himself to me. CAN YOU SAY CREEPY?!??!?!? Oh no……… Thats not the end of it…. By far. I go to work the next day and totally avoid him. I think he noticed this and started being a bigger ass than before.  He also has these crazy mood swings. I am positive he does meth, all the signs and sympotms. Any who, he will go from yelling and being condescending to trying to flirt with me and make jokes. I don't have the kind of personallity to where I can just let that shit go, i will be angry about it for a few hours. Long story short I talked to my manager about his mood swings and how it affects quite a few of us at the shop (leaving out the whole creepy hitting on me thing)  and he says well ill keep an eye on it and shruggs it off. So I decide to take matters into my own hands and confront the assistant manager about the way he talks to me (like I am an idiot to surpas all idiots) and told him I am not ok with it. He gets in my face and starts yellin at me……….. So what do I do? I walk off. Frankly, I think like a guy. When that shit happens either I say somthing or I hit you in the face. Knowing that neither would be condusive to keeping my job, I choose to walk away. He then yells at me again saying I have no respect for authority and sends me home. The next day he avoids me, and today he is back to hitting on me. I have no clue what to do, I don't know if I should say something to my boss or just try to ignore it. My boyfriend (who is in the military wants to dent his face, and while that sounds good to me, It won't help…..WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!?  I don't want to be the " Girl who can't deal" or starts shit, or looses my job over this. It sucks being a girl in a male dominated career.

    I totally agree with the other 2 comments and add one of my own, until you have a real understanding of the shop you’re in, it should be strictly buisness.  A conversation should be about a particular and cut off any superfulous conversation.  This is often the case when dealing with males on the workplace.  By the way nothing personal buffster.

    Thanks guys. I seriously don’t know what to do about the whole situation. I mean I can joke around as much as the next person, I mean honestly it’s not a big deal. But when you take it to the next level and make off hand remarks about a person it is no longer just jokin’ around. It is sexual harassment. I have never been the type to just take things like this lying down, but I have to support my son so I don’t think i have a choce. I never thought I would be in this situation, not in a million years.

    ok so i know for sure he is a tweaker……. The guy that runs the shop next door has seen him in the parkinglot buying drugs, I am thinking that i just point it out to my boss and have him fired. How does that sound? I mean I wont have to go through the whole sexual harassment thing, and he goes away, right?

    OMG.. Yeah I would look into lodging a complaint… lol too Bad you cant get this guy on film…… ya know. But look harassemt up online and see what  can be done…. I would go tothat place Buff said… and you could write to the higher up in the company….. But keeeping your job and taking care of this is going to be hard. Dont do anything non professional because you may need that to watch your back…

     GOD what kind of picture would this guy be sending… I get the heebe geebies… gross…TO bad you could text him a photo of your lawyers office… like just the sign. lol that would be funny… But I think that guys like this are having lives out of control… and it takes a big deal… to make them stop or change  and its usually by law .. that they change or try.
