A.K.A "how pitiful is this?"
So I'm at work, chatting w/one of my best friends in the building, Shirlee. She's a single mom w/2 kids, has worked here for years, is a devout Catholic lady and just a real sweet heart. She is (like me) kind of a cuddly girl who loves to hug and get hugs.
She told me she'd been called into the office by her supervisor to say that someone had written an anonymous (shocker) letter to say that watching her hug somebody else was offensive to THEM because THEY considered it sexual harassment. She was the only one named in the letter, BTW.
The jist is, if she is seen hugging anyone ever again, they can take action against her. She said the boss hated to say it and disagreed with the letter writer but since there are, yanno, LAWS, she had to let Shirlee know.
I mean how pitiful is this? How the HELL did we get to this place?
Your thoughts, as always, are welcome.
XOXO
