No of course not, report him immediately

cocolepew · 23/09/2009 17:34

Hope it wasn't my DH.

Should have punched him.

Phone his main office and complain.

God I would have decked him. You need to complain about this right now. That is so not acceptable!

MrsVik · 23/09/2009 17:39

Don't know about ringing the office, I'd ring the police. That is clearly a violation, whether the police would consider it sexual harassment or not I don't know, but they'd have to open a case and the company wouldn't be too happy with that courier.

carocaro · 23/09/2009 17:41

Ugg what a pervert. That's not on.

Do not answer the door again.

Does your Dh know what he is like? If so, disgraceful if he doesn't sort it out.

Is this for real and how many parcels to you get?

GirlsAreLOud · 23/09/2009 17:49

YANBU, I got patted on the arse by a (sorry this probably very unPC) but basically a drunk, dirty tramp once. I was just standing outside the train station chatting to my male friend and he did that and walked off laughing.

The obscenities that followed him were not pretty

Ivykaty44 · 23/09/2009 17:49

Change couriers - if the parcels are coming from a particular place tell them you don't want them using this courier again as he touched you inappropriatly.

So if your husband knows about this man staring at your breasts what has he said about him smacking you on the bottom and saying he would give you one?

If someone did this in an office or any other workplace it would be classed as sexual harrassment and they'd be disciplined accordingly (hopefully sacked). Contact his employers and make a complaint straight away.

Elk · 23/09/2009 17:59

If he is an independent courier type person then you can complain to the companies that use him. I did this a while ago as the guy delivering stuff from Next and other places was refusing to give return slips. After that they kept an eye on all my deliveries and he didn't deliver to me again.

Contact Boden and the other people whose parcels he is delivering and tell them about his behaviour.

Really - he freaked you out. What if he behaves this way with anyone vulnerable?

ThatVikRinA22 · 23/09/2009 18:01

is this a wind up?
