Misadventurous Melissa

Everyday is an adventure, or misadventure as the case may be. It is the latter that makes for the best stories, inspiring the name of my blog. I'm a nurse and an attorney (and way too silly sometimes). I am retired now. WELCOME to my blog! This is a work of fiction inspired by true events. The patients I refer to are a patchwork quilt of various patient's problems mixed together. If you think you recognize someone, you are wrong. These people do not really exist.

Dry Humping The Boss

Is it ever okay to give your boss a lap dance? The reason I'm asking is because there was a party to celebrate the retirement of a female executive. The D.J., who was leading party games, asked the executive to pick a man from each table. The executive then sat on a chair in the middle of the dance floor, while each man had to take turns giving her a lap dance. Everyone kept their clothes on and there wasn't any serious touching, but there were erotic moves with various private areas shaken in her face.

As far as I know, everyone had a good time and thought it was funny, but it bothers me. I don't want to sound like an old fuddy-duddy, but isn't this a little inappropriate for a work party? This is the second work party in the last two weeks that involved the men being asked to perform like strippers.

If the women were coerced into giving the men lap dances, I'm fairly certain that there would be outrage. Or, at least I would be outraged, instead of just feeling squeamish with the male performers.

Is this some new trend for work parties or are the people I work with just weird and perhaps in need of a class on sexual harassment in the work place?
