Probably a step above those horrendous microaggressions seen in climbing gyms.

The story on microaggressions was laughable, and sad. a sign of the next generating being delicate and entitled.

The OP story is disgusting. Criminal actions being handled with a slap on the wrist. No excuse.

Company I knew had the same problem. Lawsuit filed and won by plaintiffs. Large settlement which cost the owner of the (private) company big $$$.

Reforms were immediate.

From the article:

in a separate case, the park service has temporarily reassigned the superintendent of a Florida park where female employees long complained of sexual harassment and a hostile workplace.

They took lessons from the Catholic Church?

Too many employees with not enough to do if they have the time to harass each other.

Besides the obvious this sordid affair also begs the age old question of gubmint employee
accountability be they cops or generic pencil pushers. It seems that they're even immune
to felonious assaults.

I saw some pretty blatant harassment and racism when I worked for the USFS. I always thought of the NPS as a little more enlightened agency but I guess I was perhaps wrong.
