Her Coworker Sent Her A Completely Inappropriate Selfie, So She Replied To His Corporate Email With The Photo Attached
A woman works with a man who she always considered to be a nice guy, up until he decided to send her several completely inappropriate texts one weekend at around 3 in the morning.
In the texts, her coworker suggested she should come to his place so they could “have some fun.” He also admitted that he had been interested in her for some time now, and was convinced she shared the same feelings for him.
Spoiler alert; she does not feel the same way about her coworker and she thought the texts were really gross.
The icing on the cake was when her coworker texted her a selfie he took that was really taking things too far.
She was hanging out with one of her friends when her coworker dumped all of this on her, and she decided she would just deal with it on the upcoming Monday.
“I have a really strict rule with myself that I don’t do work, think about work, or answer messages about work outside of 9-5 M-F,” she explained.
“I also don’t use my personal phone for work stuff. If someone from work calls or texts and it’s not one of the coworkers I see as a close friend and trust to not talk shop on the weekends, I’m not answering…”
“And I included dealing with this…as a “workday problem” so I ignored his message. He sent me several later first saying sorry he was drunk.”
Her coworker kept texting her, claiming that he really did have strong feelings for her but he messed up how he communicated them to her.

Well, as soon as Monday rolled around, she emailed this guy through his corporate email, letting him know that she doesn’t reply to messages outside of work hours.
She attached screenshots of his texts and his really terrible photo, before outlining that she felt that what he said to her was not ok.
She did not think to include HR on this, but she did copy her personal email to the message to make sure she had the evidence.
Her coworker was irate when he received her email, and he started texting her that she was trying to get him to lose his job.
She took another screenshot, emailed him again through his corporate email, and restated that she did not want him to speak to her about anything that wasn’t related to their job.
Her coworker finally did cease with the texts, though he showed up in front of her desk trying to talk to her.
She did ask her coworker if he was trying to speak to her about something related to work, but clearly, he wasn’t.
She calmly told her coworker that she wasn’t able to speak with him then and there, though he could go on her calendar to book a meeting and send her notes on what he wanted to discuss prior to a meeting.
He just walked away from her desk without saying anything, and she’s wondering if she shouldn’t have handled things in the way that she did.
Do you think she did a good job handling her creepy coworker? You can read the original post on Reddit here.
