I get on well with my boss normally, last friday was our xmas do everyone had a lot to drink and at one point it was just me and him talking and he randomly looked at my breasts and asked me what size they were, said they are "great". I was Shock said I wasn’t going to tell him, changed the subject then moved away.

Now I have to see him tomorrow for first time and am a bit apprehensive. Should I mention it and tell him it was out of order or just ignore and pretend it never happened?

I have NO interest in him, don’t flirt, don’t wear revealing clothes etc but I also do like him as a boss and don’t want to complain or anything

That’s down to you. If you feel it’s best to report it with another manager or whoever then do. Or if you’d rather just ignore it that’s a valid choice too. If it was me and I felt no threat and it was a one off I’d probably just try to forget it.

I think it would be too embarrassing to share with anyone else really. Hoping can just pretend it didn't happen

I would ignore the behaviour. If he apologised, I would hopefully be gracious. If he tried to take it further, or was threatening "repercussions" for your refusal to engage, I would report him to whoever I could.

If it's out of character he's probably mortified by his drunken behaviour and hoping that you won't mention it as it would be embarrassing for both of you.

If he apologises that's great.

If he is sleazy on another occasion then I'd report him.

If you like him, don't feel threatened and it is a one off then I'd probably forget it.

He probably won't remember it. What I would actually do is ignore it, but what I would like to do is speak to him privately and tell him he needs to be very careful when drinking at work events in the future as that sort of comment is completely inappropriate and if he said the same to someone else he could get into a lot of trouble.

Well today was ok, no mention of the conversation
