Jessica看到同事Claire情绪很低落。
Jessica: Hey Claire, you look sad. What’s up?
Claire: I guess I am a bit depressed.
J: Having a bad hair day?
C: (Chuckle) No, that’ not it.
J: Come on. You can confide in me. I know how to keep a secret.
C: OK… but you really have to keep this to yourself. I don’t want to cause trouble.
J: Wow. Sounds serious!
C: You know my boss, Kevin?
J: Sure…I’ve met him at a couple of company functions.
Jessica开玩笑，问Clare情绪低落是不是having a bad hair day. 说某人have a bad hair day意思是因为不顺，心情不好。 Jessica说自己嘴很严，所以Clair可以confide in me, 把秘密告诉我。Claire告诉Jessica说，事情跟自己的上司Kevin有关。听起来好象挺严重。
C: Well, he keeps commenting on how pretty I am and he frequently touches my shoulders. He says I look tense and could use a massage.
J: And this makes you uncomfortable, right?
C: Yeah! I don’t like it. I have a boyfriend and I’m not interested in Kevin at all. Plus, he’s my boss and it’s just a weird feeling!
J: That sounds like sexual harassment to me!
C: Really? Do you think it’s that serious?
原来，Claire的上司Kevin经常夸她漂亮，还动手动脚，让Claire很不舒服。Claire有男朋友，而且I’m not interested in Kevin, 对Kevin没兴趣，所以感觉很奇怪。 Jessica肯定地说，这是性骚扰sexual harassment. 这么说性质可就严重了。
J: The workplace is supposed to be a comfortable place to work in. You shouldn’t have to be looking over your shoulder all day. It’s the responsibility of a boss to make sure your workday is safe and productive.
C: Well, every time he comes out to speak to me, I worry he’s going to do or say something that makes me uncomfortable.
J: That’s sexual harassment and it’s a crime!
Jessica说，工作单位应该安全、舒适，员工不需要随时随地提心吊胆。You shouldn’t have to be looking over your shoulder all day. Claire承认，每次 Kevin 跟她讲话，她都很紧张，生怕Kevin的举止会让自己感到别扭。不过，她又说…
C: But overall he is a pretty good boss and most of the people in the office like him. I don’t want to be the one to stir up trouble. Maybe I’m too sensitive.
J: Sexual harassment is a common problem. I remember I once had a boss who kept asking me out on a date…even though I was married and wearing my wedding ring!
C: What did you do about it?
Claire说，Kevin总的来说是个不错的老板；大家都很喜欢他，所以I don’t want to be the one to stir up trouble. 不想当那个挑起是非的人. Jessica说，性骚扰是个很常见的问题，自己就曾遇到过一个老板，明知她已经结婚，还三番五次要跟她约会。Jessica是如何处理的呢？我们下次继 续听。
