I wasn't rambling. If you look at my posts they are very concise and to the point. Very seriously, and with no rambling, I tell you that sexual jokes with strangers are not appropriate. In the workplace not only are they inappropriate they may lose a person their job.

I don't know you, but the fact that you posted a joke about sexual intercourse to me, and did NOT expect me to find it rude, is (imo) naive. I base this on the facts on this thread, not on anything else. I don't need to know anything about you to conclude that. I can think of other explanations, but they do not comport with your statements that you were innocently just trying to lighten the mood.

The stuff about schools is a silly red herring, and the insulting material about teachers doesn't help buttress your argument in favor of sexual jokes, and workplace sexual repartee. Working hard does not give you license to banter sexually with anyone you meet (imo, of course).

I have no idea how you would calculate what I "deserve," but if you carry anger about me around with you, it would perhaps be wise for you not to post to me. Thanks in advance.
