A tech worker in England tried to sue her former boss after apparently believing email abbreviations he used, such as “xx” and “???,” were codes asking for a sexual relationship.
Karina Gasparova, an IT worker at “paperless global trade management” company essDOCS, filed a sexual harassment and discrimination lawsuit against her boss Alexander Goulandris outlining alleged misbehavior dating back to 2019, according to the Independent.
A judge threw the case out after an employment tribunal at London Central Court heard Gasparova’s claims. The IT employee claimed that Goulandris’ use of “xx” in emails to her were attempts to kiss her, “yy” was code for sexual contact and “???” was coded language inquiring “when she would be ready” to engage in a sexual relationship.

Also the dot at the end of his sentences were inquiries about her periods and the exclamation points were phallic symbols.
Yeh, someone needs some psych help.
Don’t tell that to nextrush.
I don’t know, but he asked the cleaning lady if he could sweep with her and a lip reader interpreted it as “I want to sleep with you.”
It’s a poor quality of meaning they derive and it’s nobody’s fault but their own.
“Gasparova was ordered to pay £5,000, roughly $6,200, to essDOCS to cover costs.”
You passed the memory test.
Or she’s a gold-digging floozy trying to twist anything into some fast cash
And you’re probably correct as well 😜
I think this was email.
Holy Aching Agaves Batman!
Finally a court with common sense. Even if it is the London Central Court and far far away, it kinda gives me hope.
“... avoid EVER being alone with any female employee.”
Not even pertinent in this case; they weren’t together. All in writing. But, of course, you’re right. Male bosses have to protect themselves from the crap that does happen working with unhinged women.
And the women should be home taking care of their homes and families.
Gasparova additionally claimed that when Goulandris changed a file name to his initials “AJG,” the acronym actually stood for “A Jumbo Genital” and that he touched her hand one day while reaching for a computer mouse. She also argued that Goulandris used “an alluring voice” to tell her to “have a nice evening,” and that he “stared at her” and allegedly touched her leg under a table during an incident in November 2019.

Article: “Can you please complete the following: The solution us currently used by xx Agris companies and yy Barge lines in corn cargoes in south-north flows in the ???? waterways,” Goulandris wrote in the email to Gasparova, according to the BBC, citing evidence that was heard in court. “Also, can you remind me of what the balance of the rollout will be and the approx. timing. Thanks.”
Me: Yeah, I'd rate that as being clear as mud. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
