Sexual Harassment Training
A little while ago, I had to do the sexual harassment training at work. The only good part is that it gave me ideas of things to do after work. Anyone have any good stories about this?

At my job, we have the sexual harassment training on line and get a certificate when we complete it. I asked if the course was a "How-to" class. :-)

Yeah, I had to go for Sexual Harassment Training, too. After working with early 20-something guys for 4 years at the Green&White place, I don't need it!

Last time we had SH training, all the guys kept repeating the "no-no"s as shown on the video verbatim. For weeks

As far as I know, we don't have SH classes where I work, but some people seem to need it.

We have annual training, online, and we get a certificate. Yea! Sitting in a conference room watching videos is the worst.

Y'know, I say the comic in the first post and was about to do the old, "Good comic, but we don't allow people to wander off with another person's copyrighted work," routine, but then I realised it's yours

They did it at my job, and it was the biggest waste of time and insult to my intelligence I can imagine.
No one was taking it seriously, which royally pissed off the instructor. The woman next to me mentioned that she was 70 years old, and that she wasn't about to harrass anyone, and no one was going to harrass her.
Then they showed a short film about what constitutes harrassment, including a wonderfully-acted scene where a guy wolf-whistled at a female coworker. What was this, the 50s???
About the only thing I learned was that I apparently sexually harrassed the guy who cut me off at the light on the way to work that morning.
