Yeah but you're government, right? Call me jaded but public agencies are full of this kind of bullshit.
I really hope your coworker calls the boss on it. Poor guy. Nobody should have to encounter that at work.
Yes, government.
She's constantly making comments that are right on the edge of offensive (although, of course, this one was flat-out offensive). I'm not sure if it's my place to raise this specific issue any further.
It's gross. I'd mention it. If only to get a pattern of behavior documented in her file in case something truly heinous happens in the future.

I think it is your place. Because to put it on HIM to raise it is difficult. He has much more to lose. He can be much more easily dismissed as just being sensitive or some other such bullshit. You were there, you heard it, it's wrong, you can say something.
(P.S. I think we are two degrees of separation apart)
You clerked for Sotomayor, too?!
LOL.
Of course! And right now I'm a circuit court judge. And will be NASA's next representative on the international space station. All while on break between my Oscar winning documentary film work. Didn't you know?
Actually, your group photo reminded me why going to my high school reunion might be fun - to see people I liked but haven't thought about in years. You either have a friend from undergrad who grew up in SF, went to high school with me and is an LA lawyer, or she's just a look-alike. I'd love to catch up with the real person (whether you know her or not).
ETA @misoangry: That sounds stalkery. I don't actually know where you went to college (just that it's one of a handful of very prestigious schools). I remember where the classmate/lookalike went. If it is her, that's how I'd guess you knew her.

Nobody is a lawyer in Los Angeles. One woman is a radiologist in San Diego, another is an investment banker in New York, and the third is at the U.S. Attorney's Office in Oakland.
