Thank you all for the replies. This really is a difficult situation & I've been handling it for years now, but it's just gotten out of control the last 6 months or so.
Just to clarify the situation, the mayor answers to no one but the voters. There are elections next May & there is a strong likelihood he'll lose. Problem here is he owns a pharmacy across the street, & I'm afraid if he loses things will actually get worse. It'll alleviate the professional situation & I'll be more comfortable telling him to get off my back, but still, he's so close & persistent I don't know if he'll listen.
He is actually my boss's boss (he's the mayor, my boss is the city manager, I'm the asst. manager). I have mentioned this to my boss twice just to make sure it's on record. I've also spoken w/the City Clerk about it b/c she's the case manager for sexual harassment cases, so it's on record in case I do have to take action. And I have witnesses, not to mention the log I started last week.
Nancy, thanks for the link, I am going to bookmark this just in case I need her. I don't know if I should contact her now unless she's willing to give free advice--I'm not ready to sue & I can't afford to pay an attny right now.
And I have been looking for another job for some time now. I really can't stand this, not to mention I have an absentee boss (he works 20-30 hours a week, I work 50-60) who dumps all his crap on me & then takes credit for it. Problem is my skills are so specific (I've been in local government my entire career) that I'd probably have to relocate, which I really don't want to do.
<sigh> I wish he'd just move to Germany to be w/this ditzy chick instead of picking on me all the time.
