Week 9 EOC: The Apartment

The sexual harassment in this movie wasn't as severe as in 9-5 or as severe as the work place harassment. Men were using derogatory terms against women and women they work alongside, smacking their butts while exiting the elevators, the boss was sleeping with multiple employees (at different times), there was a strip tease at the company christmas party, etc. there were many others but these are just a few. Although there was a lot of sexual harassment it doesn't compare to the amount of work place harassment in this movie! Threats of losing his job over non-work related issues was a vey big count of work place harassment, he was given promotions without even being sure if he was qualified for the position, he looked up a woman's employee card which nowadays would be completely illegal and downright creepy, the secretary was listening to her boss' conversations, one of the employees was later fired for telling the mistress about his past affairs with other women in the office including herself, along with many others. This movie is a great one but has so much sexual and work place harassment its hard for me to consider it a love story!
