Re: Office Etiquette

Ms. Kurves, if you wouldn’t mind, could you please wear your security card somewhere other than on your chest. It’s a little distracting for some of the attorneys when you shake your breasts at the card scanner in order to open the glass security doors.

[DK, thinking: I’m supposed to carry that card with me?]

Also, when being escorted to your car in the evenings by an armed police officer, it is not always necessary to say goodnight by calling out such comments as “I’ve been thrown out of better places than THIS!!!!”

As far as transcribing dictation projects, you do not actually have to type “Hugs and kisses” or “Love from” in place of “Very truly yours” even if the sassy young attorney dictates such a humourous ending to a client letter.

In answer to your question as to whether you can sue the firm for sexual harassment whenever one of the legal assistants has to stand at the printer to the side of your desk thus placing her derriere more or less in your face, unfortunately, that is not against firm policy. However, your suggestion of a firm smack on the offending buttocks most likely would cause a potential issue.
