Depends on what country you were in and what country you are a citizen of.

File sexual harassment charges, along with contacting the state labor department about him throwing your time card away to prove what you've worked. Keep track yourself...\nAlso, it is illegal for you to handle any alcoholic beverage under the age of 18. You can also notify the police about him selling the beer and how he's doing it.

Nothing. You can not sue them it really wasn't discrimination. You were either over qualified or under qualified..It happens.

Yes under sexual harassment.  Contact the US Department of Labor and file a complaint.  They then can act on it or allow you to hire a lawyer and have the lawyer act on it.  Under the law they must be given the chance to act before you can goto court.

Yes, always remember that this is true. Cops have a badge a gun and a right. The are there to serve and protect, and in this case the owner of the business. Do you realize that even though you feel that you are doing nothing illegal, if something was to happen at that business later on that you will come immediately under suspicion. Just because you were there.

Don't know if you could sue, but you sure could report them to the appropriate agencies or Attorney General of your state.  Check the "whistleblower's laws" in your state also to see what protections are offered to you.

Why say anything? A true lady just keeps on walking, and ignores them, holding herself above rude behavior such as staring. Just walk away.\n\nUnless these guys are following you or harassing you. In that case, you get a security guard.

Well, there isn't really a right answer to this question. Yes, a mall is a business, and is private property, but because of the nature of that business, and the fact that it is intended to serve as a public gathering place, the owner of the mall has a lower level of rights to proscribe, or limit, the types of activities that can go on there. But, you have to look at the reality of the situation. The actions of the security guard may have been in fact improper. Still, what would it take for you to assert your boyfriend's rights? You would have to sue the mall owner. Are you really prepared to go through the time and expense? I don't think so, and more importantly, the mall owner doesn't think so either. So, what you are left with is the fact that a security guard acted as the mall owner wanted him to, and your boyfriend had to cover his shirt, right or wrong.\nI guess the conclusion is not whether the action was wrong, but whether you had the time, interest, and money to have the action judged wrong by a court.

When I was younger, I faced this same situation and it was very uncomfortable.  My advice to you is twofold:  First, let your boss know that his comments are not appreciated and are unprofessional, preferably via email so you have proof.  Next, request a confidential interview with your companies HR department.  I guarantee your claim will be taken seriously, especially if you come with proof in hand. My guess is either your boss will be terminated after the investigation or severely reprimanded.  Most comapnies have a zero tolerance for sexual harassment as it has cost businesses millions of dollars if it goes to court.  Document everything you did to try to resolve the situation.  Use a notebook and note days you spoke to someone, who you spoke with, their title and what statements they made.  Be very factual-do not embellish.  If your company wants to bury this or refuses to correct the situation, which is unlikely, then go to a lawyer with your notebook, any emails or written correspondence and your voice recording.  The voice recording may not be admissible in court as it is illegal in many states to record someone without their consent however bring it all and let the lawyer determine what he can use or not, if it should come to that.  If you do go to court, it will take a long time so be prepared to find another job and carry on with your life.  But you have a good chance of your company doing the right thing so more than likely that last piece of advice will not be necessary.  Good luck and remember, you are protected from sexual harassment by law.

I have a lot of them.\n\nI was an executive for a convention and trade show company. I had to travel to Phoenix for a week to set-up, run,  and take down a show.\n\nI had recently lost a lot of weight and was proud of my figure.  The night before the trip I went to the shops and bought some new light weight clothing in a smaller size.  One of the sets was a very pretty pale gold skirt and blouse with very thin cotton material that needed a slip underneath for modesty. \n\nNext morning my husband took me to the airport at 5:30 am.  I went to the ladies room before I started to walk through the airport.  As I was walking trough the airport I noticed a lot of people were turning to admire me (or so I thought).  I was very proud and more than a little vain about my appearance.\n\nWhen I got to the place where they x-ray and they check your carry on things; I put my stuff through the machine but the security lady who was off a bit from the machine motioned at me to get over to be checked.  \n\nI got indignant because there was nothing in my luggage that was restricted and I started to argue with her and got fairly indignant with her but I did go over to her and was going to let her check me.\n\nWhen I got over to her - she whispered to me that my skirt  and slip were tucked up into my panty hose in the back:\n\nI had walked bare assed through the entire Atlanta Airport.\n\nI did not have on any panties

Get a badge number, GO to the station,and file a report for harrassment.  IF they do not investigate it, THEN get a lawyer.  I have had a friend in this situation before and they got it solved by saying "Laywer"

You should consult a solicitor. A lot of solicitors will give you a free hour consultation or look on legal websites, they should be able to help. Even if you can't sue them you should be able to get a Court order to get them remove this information about you. I'm sure there is something in the Data Protection Act that protects you. If they are using ANY personal identifiable information, including your name, you should be able to sue them under that act. \nThe other place to try is their ombudsman or, if they are not a company governed by anyone, the Internet Watch Foundation. They should be able to uphold your complaint.\nAnyway, good luck and i really hope you persue this. People running these type of websites should be stopped as it is not fair for them to use information about to ridicule you.

That is tricky.  What kind of history do you have with the person?  Is the person known to be violent?  What is the context?  Sometimes you should ignore it and go on.  Sometimes you should take it very seriously and seek legal help.  If you genuinely fear for your safety, have a restraining order filed against the individual.  If the person has attempted to harm you, file charges with the police.  It helps if there are witnesses.  If you are at work, let your employer/supervisor know immediately.  If you are not provided a safe work environment, you can file a sexual harassment complaint.  I know, it's not sexual; but it falls under sexual harassment anyway.

The next time that your boss tells you that "this is a man's job", remind him that he is breaking the law.  A job is a job, there no longer is a "man's" job, just like there is no longer a "woman's" job.\n\nAlso let him know that if there is any more harassment by your co-workers, you will consider that as management's consent and approval of the unacceptable behavior, and you are prepared to take appropriate action, legal and otherwise.\n\nLet him know that you have started a log of inappropriate action/ behavior of fellow employees and management personnel. Starting with the instant conversation, you are documenting everything that is said and done (who, what, where, when, time, place, and witnesses), that you consider to be harassment or sexual discrimination, and/ or related matters such as counselling sessions that you may be involved in.\n\nAlso make him aware that any adverse action such as termination, discipline, demotion, or transfer to a less desirable position will be considered retaliation, and if it happens you will take further more aggressive action.\n\nTell him these are not threats but commitments. \n\nAsk him if that is "tough enough"!
