Best Parts Of The Mandatory Sexual Harassment Training Course At My Work Yesterday

-video to start off the training included the line: "Let me tell you about my retirement plan...let's retire to my bedroom!"

-video broke the fourth wall by showing that each announcer's "workplace" was really just a studio that they were filming in.

-also from the video, one of the suggested methods for avoiding participating in sexual harassment is to envision what your wife, children, parents and THIRD GRADE TEACHER would say if they learned about it. Quoth the imagined third grade teacher: "He used to be such a nice boy..."

-real life group leader insisting that it was extremely rare that females ever sexually harass males, even though the reason we were having the mandatory sexual harassment training was that a female had sexually harassed a male.

-afterward, at the office holiday party, a co-worker apparently said: "I think I'll have some Wild Cherry Pepsi...wait, am I allowed to say cherry?"

I think this post is one of the funniest ones I've ever read. then I tried to relate how funny it was to a priest. He didn't get it. Especially the wild cherry part.
