Q: I’m wondering whether I should file a sexual harassment complaint. Recently, my manager asked me to find some information on his laptop. When I entered his password, the first image to appear was an extremely pornographic picture. By the expression on my face, he immediately knew something was wrong.

After looking at the screen, he became very embarrassed and apologized profusely. Although neither of us has mentioned the incident again, I can’t get that image out of my mind. I also hate the thought that I touched that laptop, since I don’t know where it might have been. Should I do anything about this?

A: While I definitely empathize with your discomfort and disgust, your exposure to this obscene image appears to have been completely accidental. If your boss is viewing porn on an office computer, he may not be too bright, but he doesn’t seem to be intentionally harassing you.

Should your manager act inappropriately in the future, then you should talk with human resources. But if not, just consider this an unfortunate mishap. And in case you’re ever asked to work on his laptop again, you might want to invest in some hand sanitizer.
