In her mind, she was never going to be ready… how could she be ready with the huge knot in her stomach telling her it was a bad idea. No. It was an extremely bad idea.
What on earth was she thinking? Why would human resources elect to have her do this presentation? They all must have lost their minds.
Alice walked into the empty elevator. This presentation was not going to go well at all. How do you explain to a bunch of ‘good ole boys’ the importance of sexual harassment education in the workplace?
She must be crazy to try to explain how a hostile work environment can cause trauma like effects in women to these old fossils. It's not like women are fragile little eggs but repeated harassment over time can take its toll on even the strongest of women.
Most of these old men evaluate a woman's competency at her job by how she looks in a tight short skirt. She would have more luck getting the Emperor put on some clothes to hide his naked behind.
What's the worst that can happen? They could have security eject her from the conference room. It wouldn't keep them from lawsuits. They already had two sexual harassment suits filed against them.
Alice checked her tablet one last time then tugged on her black pencil skirt. She instantly regretted not wearing pants. She took a deep breath as the elevator doors opened. She walked down the hall and into the conference room.
The old men stared at her behind as she connected her tablet to the large screen. There stares made her skin crawl. She glanced back over her shoulder and noticed they weren't even trying to hide what there doing. She rolled her eyes and finished connecting the equipment.
“Please take your seats. I’m Alice Hatter and this is your mandatory sexual harassment presentation. As department heads you will be required to inforce these policies. Shall we begin?”
She was met by a group of old men staring at her breasts. That was it.
Alice slammed her hand down on the table and they all jumped. “Listen here you dirty minded old perverts, you had better take this seriously or you will end up fired. Now stop looking at my boobs and my ass and pay attention.”
Yeah this was gonna go really great…. Assholes!
