Ice Girl's public thoughts.

Being female bodied is rough. ?

Following up on my last post a coworker who was sexually harassing me escalated to a threat yesterday when we worked together.

At the end of a quite dramatic situation as we were prepping the ambulance he said I got something to say and he went on an angry fueled tirade on how because I'm applying to medical school that doesn't make me better than anyone and I should respect him and others more instead of being a B--ch.

The way he said it I could see it was a proxy for the fact I rejected his advances and told him a couple of weeks ago if he didn't stop I would go to management.

Yesterday I had a therapy session and oddly as I was driving over my Boss called me told me to give him some receipts or else they can't do anything.

So I had to quickly go through my phone and provide screenshots while trying not to be late.

My boss said something don't know if its a trained to say comment or from the heart.

He called me brave for coming forward. I certainly don't feel very brave since I tried to manage the co worker on my own for months by reasoning with him about the situation.

I feel I failed because I let him get to me and I came forward to face this unknown because I couldn't handle it on my own anymore now I'm anxious he might attack me or my bosses angry with me.

I don't want to lose my job because a coworker couldn't take a rejection yet now who knows ultimately what's going to happen.

All I can say is that I am happy that I am no longer covering for my abuser.

I no longer have to pretend I am ok with his unbelievable amount of BS.
