I am glad I don't work in Mcdonalds like you. Once you get older you'll realize why people don't tell those jokes in a real work environment.

from now on, I would not engage in these coversations, especially with women. you need to CYA somehow. This is gonna fall down hard on someone, and it's usually gonna be a guy, regardless who owns the business/ They'll just find some underling(you) to take the fall for the whole debacle.

It sounds like you work with people who think of themselves as funny, but everyone else think they're dickheads.

There are a lot of sexual jokes made at my workplace, by men and women both. But then, I have a unique workplace.

Sexual harrassment happens all the time. It's sad really as it is a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Not at my work. I wouldn't want them too either, that'd be creepy and gross coming from the people I work with. Except one girl. I'd "joke" with her bent over the desk all day.

No. At my first job, everyone was out to get everyone else. There weren't that many men in the place (nursing home), so no one needed to have the sexual harrassment card played on them.

Second job was at head office of an entire division. HR was on the same floor, so no chance of that.

Same.

In a normal office setting though, what the OP describes is definitely not appropriate.

My boss apologizes for using the word damn... but then I shove my dick in her face and she makes her coochie whistle and we both have a good laugh.

I work in an office with about 200 other lawyers; we don't even make eye contact. :laugh:

At my previous job, my group which consisted of five guys used to cut up on each other, calling each other f*ckstick, c*ckgobbler, polesmoker, etc. etc. We had fun, but we knew our limits and we wouldn't say any of that crap outside of our group. You can have fun at work, but you need to keep a professional tone around people you don't know.

Agreed. That is way out of line and inappropriate. I can't believe people think that kind of stuff is funny. It does nothing for the work environment in a positive way.

Although I can be pretty raunchy in casual conversation among friends, I'd NEVER say anything even remotely sexual at work. My colleagues crack sexual jokes, but I never fire back.

yeah, you're examples aren't exactly subtle..... we joke around at my work, but not everyone, only a few of us, and it's VERY subtle when others are around

Indeed. The last place I was at we had insane banter...

No one gets offended though where I work.

That is not subtle, do you think they need to penetrate her to be considered harassment???

As a manager - I discourage them. Can't expose yourself to a lawsuit. I only have one female in my office - and she tells more of them that anyone else. Hehe
