And he said,' It's sexual harassment,' i said,' How am I guilty of sexual harassment ? It was he who stood up there.' And he said,' Well, you encouraged it.' And I said,' Well, they were laughing.' He said,' They were laughing because they were uncomfortable. And if you don't apologize to them, I might have to let you go.' So I apologized.
