Shop assistant, 40, sues (employer) after female colleague, 68, 'slapped his bottom three times'
The Daily Mail (UK) ^ | 2/2/2011

A male shop assistant is claiming sexual discrimination after a 68-year-old female colleague allegedly slapped his bottom three times while working at the flagship John Lewis department store.

Konstantinos Kalomoiris, 40, claims Bianca Revrenna tapped his behind in the locker room and on the shop floor at the famous store on London's Oxford Street.

Furniture department worker Mr Kalomoiris, who says he quit his job as a result, told an employment tribunal that each time he was slapped the pensioner paused for a few seconds 'like she was savouring it'.

And when he told her to stop he said she replied: 'I do that to all the boys.'

Mr Kalomoiris, who had worked at the store - famous for its policy of 'never knowingly undersold' - since 2006, complained to his manager after the third incident last April.

He claims he was told he should be 'delighted' a female colleague liked him enough to slap his bottom.

Mr Kalomoiris said he made a formal grievance against Ms Revrenna, who is one of the oldest and longest-serving members of staff after racking up 40 years' service with John Lewis, after deciding he 'couldn't take it anymore'.

However, he was forced to bring his claim to the Central London Employment Tribunal after colleagues at John Lewis laughed at him and told him he was 'too sensitive'.

Considering she is 68yo, I think she looks very age appropriate. Whould the guy have preferred another guy slap his bottom?

And if a 68 year old man kept slapping the behind of a female coworker 28 years his junior, you'd be ok with that, provided he looked "age appropriate"?
