[M.D. Holloway]

This isn't the first time this guy has dis'd me in public. One time, in the middle of a meeting, he excused himself and came back, threw a magizine down on the table and said "tell me that isn't the gayest thing you have ever senn!" It was me on the cover. I publish tech articles from time to time and this one mag put me on the cover. I thought it was pretty cool - my kids thought so as well as my Dad and Wife.

This guy proceed to rank on me. I didn't say a word, I looked around the room and no one thought it was very funny. Some actually asked me about it and showed interest. My boss (also my best friend) changed the topic and moved on. He is real political and can play the corp game with the best of them. This is actionable - same sex sexual harressment so says counsel - but I would lose my job. Not worth it.

My boss reports directly to the CEO. The sr VP reports to the Exec VP who reports to the CEO. I'm a Director so I guess me and this guy are on the same level but he has been with the co for over 20 years, I have been here 6.

I can freeze him out and not make it obvious. Not sure confronting him would not solve the issue. What I would really like to do is go man-2-man on him in the parking lot some night Texas style opening up a serious can of whoop arse but thats just me talking tough.
