Just a place for my thoughts

Regis, I would like to poll the audience

My secretary/office manager and I are on pretty casual terms as far as a boss/employee relationship goes. I hear a lot of things about her personal life that I am not sure would get discussed under other circumstances. We kid around a lot too.

So yesterday, she came in wearing a nice spring shirt that was kind of form fitting. No more provactive than a T shirt, but form fitting nonetheless. For some reason, her “headlights” were on all day.

I am very sensitive to the whole sexual harassment issue thing, and very careful about my comments to her. One of the other men who work here looked at her and said “nice shirt”. So when she went home and looked in the mirror, she realized why he said it. She comes back today to tell me about his comment, and she had a look on her face that said “why didn’t you tell me?”

So what would be a good way to discretely point out that she was in danger of putting someone’s eye out, without being sued?

Help!

    That is a sticky situation. You think if you say something she will get upset and mad at you thinking you are harrassing her, then you get it for not saying anything! You can't win with women, don't even try!

    Best of luck to ya!
