My office is full of loud folks and it's really disruptive. My biggest issue is my tech lead will walk up behind me and pull off my headphones without any warning. It really startles me, so I've taken to not wearing anything and putting up as bast that I can with the noise
- smegsicle 2y agofile sexual assault charges
- silok 2y agoThis is definitely some creepy behaviour by the tech lead, but how is it sexual assault? This just deflates the meaning of sexual assault to mean any kind of "uncomfortable assault"?
- pfannkuchen 2y agoThat is incredibly weird, where do you live?
- dekhn 2y agoCan't tell if you're trolling or serious, or what your specific situation is, but you should be either telling your tech lead to please stop doing that, or asking your manager or HR to tell them. This is not acceptable behavior in a normal workplace.
- happytoexplain 2y agoI know this is a form a victim-blaming, but the other party isn't here, so I can only address you: You can not treat this behavior in the way you've described. Every time somebody accepts victimhood even in small ways, it hurts everybody. Basic, "default" levels of respect for people is the most foundational layer of humanity. For the sake of society, do not accept petty acts of disrespect.
- TheCleric 2y agoThis is NOT okay. I can’t imagine touching someone else or something that they are wearing on their person in the workplace (unless there is some good reason otherwise), and vice versa.
- musicale 2y ago> so I've taken to not wearing anything Well that's one solution.
- Two4 2y agoNext time they do that, scream. Like, actual-cannibal-shia-lebeouf scream. They won't do it again in a hurry.
