Don’t Make Eye Contact! A Sexual Harassment Joke

A lawyer was on the phone in his office, and a client was waiting patiently next to the lawyer’s desk.  While the lawyer was still talking quietly, his secretary strolled into his office.  The client raised his eyebrows at this vision of beauty.  She wore a tight dress which displayed ample natural cleavage and curved smoothly around her backside.  She confidently placed a file on her boss’s desk, bending down a bit so that the lawyer and his client could get an eyeful.

“Thank… you,” the lawyer said, almost mechanically, not making eye contact with the secretary.  “I… appreciate… all… the… competent… work… you… do.”

When the secretary left the office, the client almost commented about the lawyer’s self-restraint, but the lawyer signaled him to be quiet for another moment.

After the phone conversation was over, the client said, “Time’s have changed.  A few years ago you would have said something lewd or suggestive to that babe.”

“Yeah,” the lawyer said.  “But I’ve learned that sometimes I have to be careful with what I say.”

The client shook his head.  “It’s that sexual harassment political correctness run amok.”

“No,” the lawyer said.  “That was my wife on the phone.”
