Flirting at working????

I don't understand some people just completely disregard the fact that flirting is distracting and unwelcomed!?!?!?

I take it seriously do I need to chill out or what ???

    So in other words, you may have flirted right back with him but for the fact that he's already got somebody?Aye?

    then check yourself, your rebuttal must not be strong enough.

    I think that while flirting is unprofessional and not appropriate in the workplace I think that a little flirting here and there is usually harmless. However, if someone is flirting with you and it is unwelcome and you are bothered by it then it is no longer flirting it becomes sexual harassment and that is a very big problem that needs to be taken care of immediately. I would try confronting the person first to see if you can clear up the misunderstanding and if they persist then report them. Its as simple as that.

    Ugh. The profession of nursing already has the "sexy" stereotype. And then there are nurses that readily admit to flirting because it makes their lives easier because doc's aren't as mad at 2 a.m when they call? Really?

    There is a particular person at my work that really gets to me and sometimes I know he is serious with the flirting ,and then will claim he is with someone ........ its throwing me off with work and my life at home !

    why is it affecting your life at home? I'm a little confused here.......

    That does sound pretty tacky, doesn't it? My own experience with this is that there are some nurses, and some doctors in larger settings that play games like that- but it is far from "business as usual" and they don't garner a lot of respect from everybody else- which could loosely be translated as "people make fun of you behind your back". Sorry to be so blunt about it, but it's true. That's how it was when I started out, too.

    It is also true that if a doctor knows you, trusts your judgement, and you've taken time if possible to be friendly and interested in them as a person, they are less likely to jump all over you than if you called him or her at 2am for a dumb reason and he doesn't have a clue who you are. But that's Interpersonal Relations 101 ;)
