I was really young, maybe 18, and I was working in a restaurant where the short order cook was known for being a pervert to all of the girls who worked there. He touched us inappropriately and talked dirty to us. The manager knew what was up, but the cook was really good at his job, so didn't do anything about it. Honestly, I think he was enjoying it too. He had to do something after I threatened to call the cops and fired the dude.
You know what was worse than the time the cook grabbed my boob? After being fired, he passed behind me, and whispered hot and wet into my ear: "watch it, little girl. You'd better have your mom pick you up from now on. If you walk home, I'll rape you every night."
I was so chilled by it, and was shaking so hard for the next hour, I spilled on four customers, and my manager sent me home. Wanna guess what else happened? Yup. My mother picked me up from work every night from then on.
That example illustrates just ONE of the reasons there are sexual harassment laws. I mean, what, should I thank the guy for warning me before raping me?
