    I honestly feel bad for Enzo. I'm autistic, and have pretty bad OCD myself (it's not nearly as bad as his though). I haven't become violent when something disrupts my patterns, schedule, etc. But if buttons were continuously pressed for me, I'd scream or have a complete meltdown and cried.
    People like that process everything differently. It's like 5x stronger with less of a mental filter than most people. It's something that you have to have a lot of therapy for.
    I hope the best for that guy.

      as a fellow autistic with ocd myself, hearing enzo go through that hit me in the feels. while i wouldn't be violent, i would have definitely hurled insults and a lot of yelling to make the person back off. if the office staff tells you to stay away from the introvert, stay away from them considering you don't know what they will do if you disrupt their routines especially when it comes to somebody who they have little to no familiarity with

      As someone who also doesn't like being touched and having their personal space messed with, I felt second hand cringe at the part about the guy sitting on his desk and touching his head/hair. I don't think I'd give someone a thorough beating like that, but I'd probably still hit them just out of reflex if they suddenly did that to me

      Yea I don’t get that either but the mandatory minimum sentence is 5 years and if the victim is under 18 and the perpetrator is not a family member the minimum sentence is 20 years in federal prison which means the least u can do is 80% so no less then 16 years so I have no idea how he only got 2. Also I think it’s crazy that he was the one that was mad when the father confronted him. If u say something like that about a guys teenager daughter and you’re able to walk out of his house u should be on your knees kissing his feet in gratitude. The fact that her father didn’t drag him out of the house by his balls is amazing but the fact that the perv actually thinks he’s the one that should be mad is absolutely insane

She could have used what the bully said to motivate her to make her health her priority but no, she tried to kill him. In my experience, fat women in the office are the bullies and meanies. They're just projecting their misery.

    The one about the intern and the sexual harassment horrified me. I feel bad for these women who are victims of this and aren’t believed. They have to put up with it and shut up lest they get fired or reprimanded in some other way. I’m not surprised at the way HR reacted their job is to protect the company not the employees. I wish she could’ve sued that company.

    When I was 21, fresh out of college, I worked in an office and there was an older man who everyone loved, myself included. He was the "dad" of the office - and I spoke with his own 2 kids who were my age often. After about 6 months, he was on the phone one day with his brother. He asked me to come meet his brother and I happily agreed...until his brother asked about my looks, and they both started talking about my butt.. I was so embarrassed. This was in front of at least 4 other colleagues, and everyone was shocked. They had a whole conversation while I was just standing there about my butt.
    After many attempts to report (the HR rep kept leaving during our scheduled meeting) I finally went directly to the director of HR and asked to remain anonymous. I just asked that they request him to take his personal calls outside of the office due to the distraction cause I work a phone job and that they had mentioned something sexually inappropriate and it made me really uncomfortable. I wasn't even going into detail and i could tell they didn't want me to.
    Well, HR actually told him I asked this and he was cold to me and would tell other people he "got told on." HR sucks.

      I'm sorry that happened to you. If someone is willing to behave that way in front of other employees then I would be very concerned at what they may be capable of behind closed doors. Every job always tells you to report any inappropriate sexual behavior but most times if you do, You end getting fired and the other person gets no disciplinary action against them. Or they make your work life so miserable you're forced to quit. That's so ridiculous that ppl like that are given a free pass to violate someone. You did the right thing by going to HR, they were wrong for failing to protect you.

    Story 5 - Too many people find themselves trapped in a situation like this and feel like no one cares, no one understands, and no one wants to help. It happens too often. There is no easy answer. To those who are experiencing something like this, please take care of yourself first. There will always be another job, another apartment, and neither is worth suffering abuse. Do whatever you can to remove yourself from the situation; if you can't do so right away, document everything you possibly can.
    But, most importantly, know you are not alone and there are unfortunately so many who understand how you feel all too well. You are important, and no one can take away your worth, though many may try. You deserve to be surrounded by those who love you and support you. 💕 You are not alone.

    Relating to the one with the disgusting men in NYC: Sadly, not even the police helps most women who have to deal with men like that. When it's literally their job. Many times, they won't even believe them.
    I personally have been raped by my old boss and the police did not believe me, saying that I most likely wanted it. Two other girls who worked with me in his night club, who were my friends at that time, and I were all 16 at the time. He was at least 40. And he had always been disgusting at work, but one night we made the mistake of going to his friends' apartment with him and another one of his friends after he told us there was a party.
    Two years later I was attacked by some guy who probably tried to rob me, he hurt me a lot physically and when the police was called by people who heard me screaming (thankfully!), I fell into an hour long loop of panic attacks because I thought nobody would believe me again. For some stupid reason this incident got classified as sexual violence and not an attempted robbery, so I actually had to deal with the same police officers again. And they again failed me, even though they had found the broken glasses right were I was attacked of a previously known drug addict who has robbed people in a very similar manner before. I have no hope when it comes to the police

      FightTIPS, global martial arts university, and human weapon are excellent sources on UA-cam to learn to fight. Jog regularly at the quickest, non suffocating pace. Do push ups, back exercises and curls. Athlean x is a good channel. Watch Dr Eric berg for tips on a healthy diet, as nutrition is vital for fitness. Spar at boxing gyms for experience. Then you should have the physique and skills to never experience that trauma again and cripple scumbags like them so they no longer keep hurting others. Training is actually fun when you're used to it.

    And to those who say the stories are comparable they're really not. One involves a man with a well known mental illness who acted very inappropriately in the moment while the other involved deliberate premeditated planning. What Enzo did was not okay but I don't have sympathy for Mark in that regard.

      “Mark had it coming” even though he almost died, and yet the guy in Story 3 didn’t deserve to almost die? Not saying you’re wrong, but 2nd story is presented from a neutral 3rd party observer who knew Enzo very well, while 3rd story is presented from the victim’s perspective. And also, I don’t think it was *just* the one insult to Angela that did him in. It was likely months of insults and harassment to her and others that the guy just left out.
