Last night at our office party I walked in on my female boss pleasuring herself on the door handle of the stationary cupboard.
As I am the office junior I am the one that has to go to that cupboard most often, and now I really don't want to.
I have two choices, either I wear gloves from now on or report her for gross indecency in the workplace. What would you do?
Serious answers only please.

Ok, if this actually happend............
First, clean the doorknob. I know this is annoying but it is also the most ethical course of action (IE the point is to stop the behavior NOT embarrass her to death if you can avoid it). So "preserving the evidence" is beside the point at first. Then proceed with as many of the steps below needed to make her stop.
1) I would take it up with her first indirectly IE ask something outside the office like "hey have you ever seen those (name some sex toy) my friend used to use those I was going to get her a gift to relieve stress for her breaks at work I guessed you might be experienced with that any ideas for the gift?"
Maybe you can think of a more creative comment but the point is to vaguely let her know you know she is into that kind of thing (and you know she could well be doing it at the office). Hopefully she will catch the hint and realize "you are right, now I think badly of her so I can only imagine people will think badly of me: I'm embarrassed and I'm going to stop."
2) If that has no effect on her (and you see her doing similar things) than, even though you had no way to catch her the first time around, you guessed it, next time she does it you can catch footage and report her.

Too bad you didn't have a digital camera on you at the time.
You could have snapped a photo of her "pleasuring herself," and then used it for leverage at your next evaluation!
I'm sure the cleaning staff in your building do a good job every night, so I wouldn't worry about touching the cupboard handle. You can wipe it off with cleanser and a towel yourself too, just in case.

The key words here are office party. Sounds like she may have had a little to much to drink. I would just disinfect the handle and let it be. She may not even remember doing that or much of anything. Now if she asks if there is anything she did that was embarrassing talk to her in private and let her know. Use discretion.

Well, firstly, I think you let her down by simply observing her on the door handle when I'm sure you could have been more helpful?
Secondly, do you not trust her to have carefully cleaned the door handle after use?
Third, just a note- there is only a limited range of things you can catch from stationery cupboard door handles!

If you'd report her, be prepared to supply proof. She could also make life very difficult for you since she is your boss. I'd say if you are ready for a fight at the risk of losing your job, then go and report it. Otherwise, even though it isn't morally correct, keep quiet and your hands in your pockets.

This must be a joke! Please tell me this is a joke. However, you wrote it with such sincerity, that I almost believe you. If it is indeed the truth, you report her. She most certainly should have enough common decency to perform these acts in the privacy of her own home. this is gross and very distasteful. God bless****

As no longer ordinary because it particularly is going to be, they might desire to go away their modern positions by using complicated artwork concern. it is not particularly ordinary to artwork consisting of your companion in the 1st place, much less whilst there is somebody else inflicting problems in the artwork place. in the adventure that your pals fee their dating and know one yet another then they are going to go away their posts. It looks like they actually need their activity, besides by using fact the extra effective artwork as a excursion handbook, yet their inner maximum lives are extra significant than a job. No activity is nicely worth being depressing. human beings spend way too lots time at artwork to be depressing. even nonetheless, i will advise that neither of them supply up their activity previously having yet another one lined up.

Maybe get one from the store and secretly put it were only she can find it. She'll be embarrassed and wont know who knows, or later you could use it as ammunition, like if she says something that pisses you off you could ask it she got the gift you put on her desk last month.

No you have THREE choices, hunni. You can wear gloves AND report her for gross indecency.
PS you missed a golden opportunity for promotion there, my lad. Why didn't you take your nob out to her?
