Have there been any updates on this?
Yes, but do it in a creepy, leering way 😉
Why don’t you refuse to have your white coat inspected at cvs when asked, and see what happens.
I made a joke at my previous job with the VP that maybe he needed the exercise after he commented on how far he had to walk... he laughed

I think you're overestimating the confidence level of the average shift-leader or shift manager.Why don’t you refuse to have your white coat inspected at cvs when asked, and see what happens.
BruhThat's not the issue here. The issue is the commentary and compliments. I dunno if I'm just socially awkward but I've never walked up to a woman random or someone who I worked with and made a comment about their looks.
Someone else can check her lab coat. I was always checked by a random front store cashier or assistant manager.
Regardless, I think it is harsh and not very helpful to just tell the OP her discomfort is wrong and she should change her feelings.
I stopped reading right here. Literally no one in this thread told her she should change her feelings. So what are you even talking about?
Lol @OP... Calling this sexual harrasment. He is just complimenting you. Pretty girls are nice to look at. Laugh it off, smile and get an A on this rotation.
Can’t help but agree. Sounds hypersensitive to a guy looking at you... he made a comment about you being in shape and your lunch, good grief.
How old is this man? Curious.

You are over reacting. He isn't doing anything even remotely illegal. Last time I checked looking at someone is not unprofessional. Checking your labcoat is probably because he suspects you of stealing. Your school is going to be mad if you cause problems as they worked hard to secure that rotation spot. Also if you try to stir up stuff you could risk failing the rotation due to the pharmacist using his position of power to fail you. Just accept that some males are creepy and deal with it. The rotation is only 6 weeks.
Had an RN smack my ass the other day in the hospital. Didn’t even know who she was till I saw the name tag... I don’t know her besides speaking on the phone when she needs something tubed up here and there. That is actual harassment.
People are wayyy too hypersensitive these days.

People are saying she’s too sensitive because it’s not sexual harassment, but almost every one told her to talk to that pharmacist. Uncomfortable doesn’t always mean sexual harassment.Just from the first two pages of this thread... Maybe no one literally used the exact words that she is wrong and needs to change her feelings, but that's how I interpert being told you're hypersensitive, overreacting, and you need to just get over it and smile.

So telling someone that they are hypersensitive is not the same as telling them to change how they feel?
How much semantics should we argue?
Being uncomfortable is subjective, and is not sexual harassment.
Sexual harassment is defined as unwanted sexual advances or obscene remarks. Did this pharmacist do any of those objective things?

How does this question relate to the topic of if the OP should change her feelings, which is what was being discussed in the post you quoted?
The argument isn't "should she or shouldn't she" (well maybe it is, but that is besides the point here), the point is wucool claimed that no one told her to change her feelings. That is pretty demonstrably false unless he literally meant that no one used the words "change how you feel".
But to follow you down the rabbit hole, how is "sexual advance" an objective thing? What objective test would you use to determine that?
Because feelings are subjective.
Someone straight asking you to go get coffee, to come over to their place after work, or physically approaching you (grabbing, touching, pressing you up against a wall, etc) in a sexual and unwanted way... those are objective sexual advances. Would you agree? An objective sexual advance is fairly obvious to point out, if you have ever received one or given one... you would know. I don’t think you’d need to ask an online forum.

So telling someone they look good or staring at them is not "objectively" sexual? You have to ask the person on a date or other extreme behavior for it to be objective?
Also I am not sure that asking someone to go get coffee can be considered "objectively" sexual. I have gotten coffee with people I didn't want to have sex with after all. It would depend on context, which ruins the "objective" part of it, doesn't it?
I think we all know a sexual advance when we see one, including the OP. But I am not sure you know what "objective" means or you are deliberately misusing it. Have you NEVER misconstrued someones intentions? I know I have thought people were sending me signals when it turns out they weren't. So while I agree that most of your examples are certainly sexual advances I do not agree that all sexual advances are objective.
I think OP is probably going to come check this thread soon, realize that all pharmacists are crazy, and change majors.

My best friend often tells me that she's never met a "normal" pharmacist.
Legs for days...Man this thread has legs. (No sexual undertone intended towards thread)
