I've got a former long time friend who happens to be my supervisor that is on a path of self destruction. He's not an alchoholic, but suffers from heavy depression and is an extreme pervert.
He's made more than enough sexual comments, put his hand down female co-worker's tops, grabbed plenty of ass, shown near stalking type behavior, shown his 'unit' to a female co-worker and completely made me out to be a fool due to some insane lieing that he did to me...the list is endless. He can not help himself (I've spent endless hours counseling him) and he denies he has any problem.
I've had two very stern conversations with my HR department about this person (sadly our friendship has ended after 14 years) warning them the company could be headed for a serious lawsuit due to his behavior that seems to be unchecked. However, while they 'value my opinion', the guy is only slapped on his hands and he continues to harrass a couple of the women here. I'm not management. He is. So, he continues to be protected...
One of the reasons that I am most likely going to leave my job of 7 years is due to his rediculous behavior and the company's lack of disciplining him.
Help if you can "get away with it", but again, protect you and your job. You can be guilty by association if this person really starts acting poorly at work.
