don't pull my hair, m*therf**ker!

I was reading this article on boston.com today and my reaction was like WTF?? Where does this person work, a day care?? Jeez.

From the article:

Q. What do you say to a person who pulls your hair at work? Co-workers seem to feel they can come up behind me and tug at my hair. My response has been to ignore it. Any advice?M. C., St. Louis
A. I can't imagine why anyone in an office environment, or anywhere else, would think that pulling a person's hair was appropriate behavior. Usually, I tell people to talk to the perpetrator in private. In your case, an immediate response is called for. Your silence is telling others in the office that the behavior is appropriate. Your response should be direct and serious, not a joke or an off-the-cuff comment. "Jane (or Tom - gender doesn't matter), what do you think you are doing? Please do not pull my hair again. If you do, I'll have to report your behavior." Not only will the person doing the pulling get the message loud and clear, so will everyone else in the office.
