My wife is having some difficulty with a male coworker. I wonder if I'm over-reacting. First, he kissed her on the cheek, not as a greeting, but just laid a wet one on her cheek. He routinely bear hugs her and picks her up, despite her protests. He's made a number of comments to her such as "I don't understand why anyone would be attracted to little girls...I could could have a whole lot more fun with you." Most recently, he sneaked up behind her and inserted his tongue into her ear. My wife has done nothing to encourage or condone the behavior. She's told him his behavior is unwelcome and makes her uncomfortable. He persists. He is married and he knows she is married.
My wife has now filed two formal complaints with her supervisor, after each physical contact. So, here's my question: am I wrong to think that this guy is about a mile "over the line" of what's appropriate in any setting? what action would you expect the employer to take? This guy has twice been reassigned within the company because of coworker complaints regarding sexually inappropriate behavior.
