| 0:02.2 | I think your knee-jerk reaction is if you're getting harassed at work. Yeah, of course you got to say something about it, or do you? So that's the question, and this is a friend of mine, and she's a woman, and she's in a really rough spot. And unfortunately, I'm sure it's something that a lot of women probably experience, at least once in their lifetime. And she came to me and she |
| 0:22.4 | was talking to me about this and she was saying that it's not as easy as I as a man thinks to |
| 0:27.8 | just say something. And that's why I feel for her. And I don't know what she should do. So she's been |
| 0:33.5 | with this company for a long time, I think over a decade. And she loves her job. She loves |
| 0:39.8 | everything about her job. She doesn't want to do anything else. In recent times, in the last |
| 0:44.8 | month of her life, I guess there's been some project that they're working on. And so they've |

| 1:20.7 | Because the first incident was he was in, she had to go into his office. |
| 1:26.9 | And she said she felt this weird energy because when she goes into the office, he immediately gets up, closes the door and closes the blonde, the shades in the office. |
| 1:37.4 | Oh, that's weird. |
| 1:38.3 | So that's what she thought. |
| 1:39.3 | She didn't understand what that was about. |
| 1:42.0 | So the first time he did it, she let it go. And she was just like, all right, I don't know what that was, but that was about. So the first time he did it, she let it go. |
| 1:45.0 | And she was just like, all right, I don't know what that was, but that was awkward. |
| 1:48.7 | So then the second incident happens where he sees her in the hallway and normally they |
| 1:54.0 | would just say hello. |
