Dear LFTP: the moaning, misspelling coworker
- My cubicle coworker misspells her own name 20 times a day and makes seductive noises; should I record her and play it back?
A listener writes in about a cubicle coworker who spells her name wrong to customers 20 times a day and makes seductive moans, asking whether to record her as proof. The hosts conclude she is bored and joking to get through the day, and that the letter-writer is a busybody who should focus on her own work: talk to the coworker directly, use HR if it is genuine harassment, or just get earphones. They also read 'Secular's' advice on the letter.
