So this morning when I took the public University buses to school, I sat in front of a man I'm guessing in his mid 40's. So he seem like the typical regular man you know. So then the next stop the bus makes, a whole bunch of people came on, and there was this white girl who sat next to him. The first thing when she sat down besides him, the man next to her, his eyes WIDEN. He kept staring at her the entire bus ride, more particular at her breast. I felt so sorry for the girl. I look at the girl's face, and she had the most uncomfortable look ever. Good thing, the man's stop was the next down, and he left. After he left, I said "Dude, did you see that man next to you? He kept staring at you" She goes like "I KNOW! I'm like why did I sit here?!" And we just laughed about it.

So I'm wondering, does this in any way constitute as sexual harassment in any way. Because wouldn't harassment follow the underline definition of making someone feel uncomfortable? I don't know. What do you guys think. I mean, in our work place, you should never make any of your coworkers feel uncomfortable, and if you do, it consitutes as harassment.

I don't want to be redundant, since everyone's kind of saying the same thing, so yea I'll talk about an experience.

So one time I was working in the library, shelving books on the first floor. This guy comes up to me and is asking me where he can find some books - check this, he asks me, in a Science & Enginering library, "do you know where I can find books on unicorns and blah blah blah"? ...... mellow.gif WTF?! Talk about lame.

Then I'm like "if you need to find any books, please use the computer infostation on the right."

Then he's like "oh no, I'm just kidding. Ahaha. Hey do you know where I can find books on blah blah blah enginnering blah blah blah?"

HOW THE HELL WOULD I KNOW?! There's thousands of books in the library! Only the actual supervisors and librarians would be able to pinpoint distinct areas where the books might be, but even so there's so many! And I was only working there for about a month anyway.

Then he goes and looks up on the computer, then comes back and goes down the row of shelves that I am putting books in, and asks me where I can find certain books again. I tell him that he's in the wrong place, that he should all the way down to the other end, since that's where they're located. Then he leaves and comes back a minute later and stares at me again, then goes to the shelves behind me and I swear I can feel his eyes on me. And then I'm putting books back on some shelves a couple rows down (opposite direction of where he needs to go) And there he is again a minute later! omg I felt so creeped out, because then he would start asking me questions that don't even pertain to the science & engineering library.

Creeper: "Oh yea, did you hear about the bomb threat on the freeway?"
Me: "Nope.
Creeper: "Yea, that's BS. blah blah blah"
Me: "That's great."

Ack then he just stands there and stares at me while I'm putting back books, asks me some other random questions, and he didn't even get the book he needed until at the end, when I was done. I swear this went on for like 30 minutes... =_="

WTF.
