Again, something I considered. But by the point, I had realized that she just wasn't quite right. I honestly believed that engaging with her would have made things worse. Maybe I was wrong, who knows. I did what I thought was best by just ignoring her. There's no point in looking back now. I still don't think talking with her would have done any good at all.

Well, yeah, our divorce was nasty. You want to hear about it? Probably not. But she brought the divorce into the workplace and did some damage and hurt business relationships that had to be repaired. It could have cost the company a lot of money. Fortunately, my clients know me very well and things remained on track.

No matter how nasty a divorce is, you don't do that, ever. She was flat out black listed from every marketing firm in this city and probably a few others for what she did. That wasn't my fault. None of that was my fault. I didn't get her fired, she did it to herself. So did this girl.
But why was it necessary to get your ex-wife blacklisted from every marketing firm in the city?

I didn't blacklist her. It doesn't work that way. There's only 600k people in this city. And less than 10 marketing firms, I think. When you do something like what she did, everyone knows about it. She couldn't get a job anywhere else, because the companies she interviewed with called my bosses(which is standard procedure) and they found out what happened. No company will hire you after you've done something like that. You will never be trusted again.

So, is the same thing going to happen to the person that was just fired? She's done in your city?

It's possible, maybe likely. She's a graphic designer so, she can do freelance stuff. I don't know who will hire her onto staff after what she did. Workplace harassment is one of those things that there's very little tolerance for these days. There's just too much liability. I think because this girl is so attractive and charming, she'll find a foothold again, eventually.

Well he had to go skittering in there first with his scrolling iPad! (Some other crazy chick must’ve thrown his phone in the river, now he has to use an iPad ) What if she was going to beat him to it, and go to The Room Where Bosses Sit Around Doing Nothing and tell them tommy had sex with a subordinate and was ignoring her now, bringing his personal drama to work instead of having a professional working relationship?

...but no, she was trying to handle it herself. She could’ve easily involved the office, and got her side of the story out. Can you imagine ignoring a coworker standing at your desk? Walking away instead of behaving as a professional? Wouldn’t want the bros to know you can’t handle your personal biz.

If only I had an iPad instead 2 years worth of texts, voice mail, notes and finally video footage to record the lewd comments, threats, pictures, watching, rumor spreading, mentions of my daughter and house. Who knew it was so easy to get someone fired in one week.

Thanks for The Definitions OP, decades of dealing with this kind of stuff, now we women can use your magical paragraphs (“Look here Boss, I finally have a definition of harassment for you, will you pay attention now?”) instead of dealing with ptsd years later.
