Maybe They Can “Appreciate” This Sexual Harassment Claim

(I work for a pizza place, and my boss is a HUGE flirt, but he never actually approaches girls he finds attractive. Instead, he tells me. In this instance, he’s talking to me about a girl I just interviewed, who was very nice, but just didn’t seem like a good fit.)

Boss: “Hey, [My Name]. You’re going to hire her, right?”

Me: “Oh, I don’t know. She didn’t really impress me. I think she might be too inexperienced.”

Boss: “I think you should. She’s hot!”

Me: “Um… [Boss], you’re engaged.”

Boss: “Hey, I’m allowed to appreciate!”

Me: “Okay, while I respect that you said, ‘appreciate,’ and not just, ‘I can look,’ I should probably let you know… she’s 16.”

Boss: *gets a deer-in-headlights look, as he is 27* “Uh… Yeah… Um…” *pauses* “This conversation never happened.”
