Creepy. The traders all flirt with the Chinese girl that sits next to me at my internship

It's kind of creepy actually. We're both interns and we work on the trading floor. The other day was Valentine's Day and at least 3 traders came up to her, asking her about Valentine's day, then saying "i'm all alone tonight :\" and basically begging her to come home with them. One of them even told her that she was really sexy in her outfit today. This type of stuff has been going on as long as I've interned here.

literally the only time the traders have talked to me was when some guy needed help with excel. Only my boss (the MD) even acknowledges my existence.

So... why haven't you tried?
 

This isn't even like asking a question, he's just letting us know

peinvestor2012Coworkers are definitely socially awkward IMO. Can't pickup women outside of work. Sounds like your firm sucks, Sam.

The boss is awesome.

 
NotaJackassif they're saying shit like "i think you look sexy in that ridiculous skirt" shouldnt she be filing a harassment claim

Only if it upsets of distracts her. Maybe she gets off on these guys' desperation.

She'd have a valid claim I'm sure, but I actually think she enjoys all the attention.

Leveraged BailoutBy the way, Sam, do you work at JPM?

Nope, but if I did I wouldn't admit it on this forum
