Sexual Harassment

This subject is in the forefront today and has been a long time coming. When I first worked in New York circa 1975 my employer had a two man personnel department. Human Resources was still a dream. However, twenty years later my next employer had a full blown Human Resources department with employee manuals covering every contingency. They also held sessions on Sexual Harassment in the workplace - attendance was mandatory - which included role playing. For some reason I was always assigned the role of the harasser. Perhaps it was my gray hair and maturity that gave me away but I really think it was my Lt. Colombo raincoat that sealed the deal. After a few sessions I went out and bought a new raincoat.
