What should I do if my male boss harasses me via text messages at work?

It would be really scary for a novice in the workplace to encounter a boss who is arrogant and wants to unspoken rules for you. At this time, girls should learn to protect themselves and never give others the opportunity to take advantage of them, otherwise they will definitely be hurt in the end. So, how should you deal with text message harassment from your male boss? Now let me talk about my humble opinion. Friends who are interested can come and have a chat.

1. Just don’t reply to the other party and treat it as if you didn’t see it.

If a male leader sends you ambiguous text messages, or sends you some sexual jokes, you do not need to reply to him at this time. Because if you reply out of politeness or other considerations, as long as you reply to the other party once, the other party will continue to stalk you. In the face of such ambiguous text messages, I personally think that the better way is to just ignore them and there is no need to react to them. Because in real life, some people just want to tease you. If they see an opportunity in you, they may continue to tease you. Therefore, you must not give the other party a chance.

2. Always keep a clear mind and protect yourself.

Since your male boss is sending text messages to harass you, there is no need for you to think about other things. Since the other party only has ambiguous words in text messages and no other actual actions, you don't have to be afraid. If the other party goes too far, you can find a way to retain the evidence. Whether it is an ambiguous text message sent by the other party or some of his words, you can record it and save it. At that time, even if the other party sexually harasses you, you can provide evidence and defend yourself. Learning to protect yourself is very important in the workplace.

3. If the worst happens, resign and leave.

If you feel that your personality is relatively weak and you cannot resist the other party, you can still have a retreat at this time, which is to resign and leave. Work is just a part of our lives. We don’t need to put our personality and dignity on the other side because of work. We don’t need to wrong ourselves so much. Therefore, if the other party is a powerful character and you feel that you cannot fight, you can even take a step back and choose to resign at this time. There is no need for girls to take risks or put their own safety at risk.
