Actually, it could be sexual harrassment - it doesn't have to be a man harassing a woman or vice versa....

MamaG · 25/04/2007 13:24

Yes, you're being unreasonable and a bully if you're doing it deliberately to annoy her.

seeker · 25/04/2007 13:17

Not unreasonable, no. But you would be being a bit of a ...now, what was that word that someone's dd called her brother and she was shocked by and which I've been using ever since? Oh, yes, kn*bhead.

this could be construed as sexual harassment. if the colleague is a younger man and you're an office of predominantly velociraptor women.

I'd be overjoyed if my male colleagues walked about holding melons up to their chests whilst leering in my general direction.

KathyMCMLXXII · 25/04/2007 12:55

Tell us more about the colleague and why this would be their just des(s)erts.

makealist · 25/04/2007 12:53

LOL at "grapes being produced by the banana."

fortyplus · 25/04/2007 12:53

bran - or whack it with a hammer?

Avalon · 25/04/2007 12:47

Think of the grapes being produced by the banana.

bran · 25/04/2007 12:46

fortyplus, that depends on whether the colleague is male or female, if it's a male colleague then a big bite with bared teeth and a bit of a snarl will have him crossing his legs.

AnnabelCaramel · 25/04/2007 12:45

mytwopenceworth - I'm lost on the grapes thing too??!
