Danger, danger, Dr. Smith. Do not ever go behind closed doors alone with an overwrought female employee as a male supervisor, or behind closed doors alone with an overwrought black or hispanic employee of either gender as a white supervisor. Get HR involved, you need a witness, for your own protection as well as theirs. Pitiful that this is the case, but it is and has been for going on twenty years.
Good point, I stand corrected! I’m a woman and I thought that Crucial was too. If you’re the opposite sex, get a second person in there with you or use the write up method where you will not be alone with the person.
