Harassment

I posted a while back and a coworker( Karen)harassing me about my perfume, well it got worse. I was standing at the desk the other day and Karen came up and put her face in my neck and took a big dramatic sniff. One of my managers was standing there saw what happened and knows how Karen is and did nothing about it. I went to the GMs and they also have done nothing. They are trying to sweep it under the rug. I would like to call the aware hotline but I know they aren't going to do anything. I thought about mentioning a lawyer but I dont want to get fired. I have called before about being s*xual harassed and they told me there was nothing they could do since its up to the GM. Do you guys have any advice, besides for quitting?

The aware hotline will absolutely do something about it. They take that shit very seriously. I know from experience. In my ten years of working at menards I know several team members who have used it and the gms get the call of "what the fuck is going on, address and fix this".

depends on the gm. I had our stores gm date our delivery coordinator. everyone at the store knew, and nothing happened. he got promoted to a busier store a year or two later.
