A strange customer in his mid-40s approached one of my coworkers (married, mid-40s) and handed her some make-up palates of some sort (I didn't see, but she told me) then told her how beautiful she'd look with them on. He then proceeded to ask her about her race, where she lived, what time her shift was over, etc. He followed her around the area she was assigned to maintain and harassed her to the point where she couldn't do her job anymore.

Within 5-10 minutes he found me, and of course had to fawn over my hair. He tried on a multitude of men's sport coats, asking me how they looked on him. I couldn't get my product rolled in the men's department fast enough. I really couldn't.

I was concerned and irritated. I told my supervisor (who sucks, never does his job) that I was bothered by this customer. He did nothing. I went on break. My coworker (who I mentioned before) was also on break, presumably to avoid the creepy guy. She told me that when she approached our supervisor, he told her that she "should be wearing a wedding ring" (she doesn't wear it at work because she doesn't want to ruin it) and to "be glad that he said that - it means you've still "got it"..." I can't believe he'd say that to her. (In the past he's also told me that I should be EXPECTING people to harass me about my hair, because I wear it down.) His response, instead of caring about our comfort and safety, was completely appalling.

I asked my supervisor to talk to the customer and tell him that his behavior is bothering some of his employees. He did nothing. As a result, I had to move both racks I was working with (sorting/rolling rejects from fitting rooms) to the front of the store just to avoid being bothered any longer by the creepy guy.

Our other regular supervisor would have had that guy OUT of the store in less than 5 minutes, but apparently the supervisor I hate believes that women are asking for it when we get harassed, in one way or another, and that it's not a big deal, etc. I'm throwing this asshole under the bus tomorrow morning.
