    To be honest, no, not in any effective manner. I had told him several times to "stop" or "you can't do that". His reactions were "oh yeah, sorry".

    I had thought about getting a lawyer, but the thing is, I actually like the guy. He's taught me everything I know about aviation. In his eyes, it's always been playful. somewhere along the lines I guess I made him think it was ok to talk to me like that. I know I should have talked to him about it a long time ago...but I just suppressed the issue.


    There was one instance where was got an account to do 19 pre buys on several different aircraft. That would mean we would have to go on the road to do the inspections. He straight up told me that I couldn't go because his wife would not approve. So basically, I couldn't advance my career because he didn't trust himself.

    This is really hard because even though I left, I still have to work with him to some degree. I moved airports, but the 2 companies do business together. That is main reason I am not suing.

    Ummm, hi honey...sorry

    Here's the deal:

    I understand it's a small industry but what is the price of your self respect, you're ability to stand up for yourself, the chance to prevent it from happening to someone else? On one hand you think we'll if I start a shit storm I'll get fired and won't be able to find another job because after all how many jobs like your can there be in South Florida, I get that.

    On the other hand you think well I've sort of advanced my career and gained some distance between yourself and this talking penis. So you probably feel somewhat relieved after all you still have a job and you can go on having some sort of relationship with this person that satifies the friend instinct in you but at the same time you keep a distance from this talkign penis so a lunchtime scenario of dick in the mouth thing won't happen again...I get that.

    1. Aren't you in school? And when you graduate won't that open new professional opportunities for yourself? Somethig that maybe won't be in the ever tiny aircraft industry?

    2. You are a very strong minded (to a fault almost ) woman. To me that is the gold that will continue to pay your bills for a lifetime. This can have profound repercussions on the rest of your life, I believe there is an aspect of trauma involved in this.

    You can not and should not sit idly by pretneding that things are fine becuase you are afraid of loosing your job. I think you are intelligent and if something should happen where you find yourself unemplyed you can find yourself ina new industry or relying on your education. Sadie, I really think you need to deal with this. Please think long and hard about pursuing this ok, not only is this a classic principle of the matter situation but your sound like you feel as though you've just been walked over and are pretty down in the dunps about it. If that summation is correct then it should already be self-evident to you what you need to do....

    Here if you need me...

    Thanks J

    I have deep anger about the whole thing, but in this instance I really do feel it's just best to walk away. It may continue, even at a different job being that we will work together to some degree.

    I don't know. I need to digest everything, look forward and to not look back.

    Yes, I am in school and graduate in December. FINALLY!!!!!!

    Who knows what will happen. I am trying to rekindle my relationship with aviation, if there is any left. I do partly blame him for destroying that

    Holy crap, I just accepted a new job. Now I have to muster up the courage to tell my boss/uncle that I'm leaving after 3 years! And he's not here today. Go figure. I'll have all weekend to worry about it.
    Wish me luck!

    Ok, I just told her. I still have to talk to my uncle. She was very supportive. It couldn't have gone better.

    Wow Sadie, that's terrible that you had to endure that. I think you did the right thing in listening to your gut. If you don't think suing him is the right course then don't do it. I wish you the best in your new job.


    I walked off a new job a couple of weeks ago because the owner grabbed my arm and she also talked down to me as well as all of her other employees. I ended up telling her that I wasn't suited to that type of job instead of telling her that I wasn't going to put up with being grabbed.

    I have had a couple of female supervisors do that to me and I will never understand how you can be so inept in a leadership position that you actually grab an employee. Both of them were pretty immature people, though.

    True, but I had full health benefits paid for 100%. I also had a broken back at the time and could not afford to give up the health care.

    So I told my bosses. They were supportive. Then yesterday he came in my office and said, "you need to talk to Fred and get the paperwork done on the car, I'm going to sign it over to you." It's not a nice car, it's like a 2001 Lincoln Continental old people's car. But it's free and it's mine. I guess he's not too upset about me leaving!! I'll take any car if it's free, and now we don't have to buy another one. We just bought my wife's Trailblazer back in March.

    I secretly wish I worked for a big giant company so I could sue and then disappear. Unfortunately in my industry, I would do nothing but create a glass ceiling for myself and it would hurt any further advancement.

    Hope you're doing well with the new job. I really think talking to him would be the best, get it off your chest and let him know how you feel. I know, I know- easier said then done. My guess is he didn't look at it like sexual harassment, and you did. I'm not justifying anything he did, it was wrong no matter what situation you were in. Just tough for someone to realize they were hurting someone if they're never confronted about it. Best of luck with whatever happens, don't let this take away the joy you have for aviation.

    ok....going to top this one.

    I have a number in my hands for a lawyer. I'm freaked out, but I find that I am not over this and I get more pissed everyday.

    Thoughts?

    Also, today I was talking to another employee and he's Jewish. Boss man said to him "they killed 6 million Jews, how did they miss you"

    WHAT!?!?!
