I think it did change over a period of time. Part of it was all the training that everyone had -- I think it made people more careful. And as a supervisor you really had to worry about the "hostile environment" because you either "knew or should have known" that it was going on.

Early in my career, I think things were a lot looser. I worked for the Army then, and the office parties were a bit wilder, with more drinking and carrying on. Later, with the advent of prayer groups and a less tolerant military, things got much more restrained. People got very cautious.

I've had some strange situations over the years too. One involved a female employee who insisted on posting a "pin up" type picture of her son. Several of the males in the office complained about it and I had to ask her to take it down. Another involved a friend of mine, who was told by her boss that she might want to glam it up, and shorten her skirts, so she didn't get "overlooked" while attending the Paris Air Show. This was the same boss who a few years earlier told me that I didn't "get it" because I wasn't the bread winner in a family. (This guy was a total jerk, not only to the women but to men too. I could write a book about him. )
