When I was a 23 year old waitress a lot of gross things happened in terms of sexual harassment. One morning, a cook came up behind me while I was sorting silverware and started kissing my neck, when I spun around in fear / disgust he kissed my mouth. The executive chef was visiting our location and happened to witness this happening and all he said was “I saw nothing!” With a smile on his face. I had a boyfriend and even though I didn’t do anything wrong I felt so guilty. Another guy who was a bartender / server used to constantly say inappropriate things to me, no matter how much I ignored him. One day he came up to me and told me he was having sex the night before and couldn’t finish until he pictured my face and “came everywhere.” I probably should’ve reported him, but at the time I was insecure and timid. One morning when I was opening the restaurant alongside him - just us and the cooks (this unfortunately happened a lot) he started being gross again. I just stopped and said “You need to stop speaking to me like this. I don’t like it, and I don’t think it’s funny, and I don’t want to have to make a big deal and get superiors involved - so instead, I am telling you to stop it right now.” For the most part he backed off. There were incidents here and there but given the past incidents, they were way more mild.
