Is there a set criteria for inclusion in competition votes or is it based on moderator preference?

Bob works in mysterious ways.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

I think he uses a modified form of this[^] to determine finalists.
Have you ever just looked at someone and knew the wheel was turning but the hamster was dead?
Trying to understand the behavior of some people is like trying to smell the color 9.

I'm not much for people touching me. I just never have been.
Sometimes when we are gathered for a meeting, my boss will put his hand on my shoulder or back. Awkward enough, but sometimes he touches my lower back. He is just that way, and it's always been awkward to me, but I know how he means it and it's never 'really' been an issue. I just let it go.
Just a minute ago there was a line crossed. I was walking through the corridor to the restroom, and he was standing one one side of the hall, talking with someone standing on the other side of the hall. So he's on my right side, and there's enough room to walk between the two to round the corner and go to the restrooms. On the way by, he gave me a "good game".
For those who don't know what "good game" is, it's a smack on the butt.
He said something when he did it, but I was too busy not reacting violently to understand it.
I really don't like people touching me.

Is said Boss male ?, does he even have an idea of your idea fun (MMA)? That just sounds like you could have HR involved (for his safety!)
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah, he's a male.
He knows a little about my pass time. We don't have an HR department.

You really should invite him out to a match sometime. Don't tell him you've signed him up for Amateur Night in the cage.
Will Rogers never met me.

He doesn't know you are a fighter, does he?
By the way, my sympathy.
THESE PEOPLE REALLY BOTHER ME!! How can they know what you should do without knowing what you want done?!?!

He is a least aware of the fact. It's a funny thing how the reality of some things never really weigh on a person until they have direct experience.

Confront and/or report it to his manager and/or quit.
|
|
|
|
|
Confronting him probably. As far as reporting, he is the owner of the company.

So sue his, erm, ass.
Most women would, and there's no reason why men shouldn't also.
Slapping someone's ass is only appropriate in sport (for some weird reason) and certain dungeons when you've paid for the privilege.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

I disagree with many of the harassment claims. I don't think you can claim harassment unless you've done your bit. I haven't told him that it makes me uncomfortable, so it's not his fault yet IMO. This would differ if it were blatantly sexual, or meant to make me feel that way.

I agree with that.

Does he call you Bing when he slaps your ass?

Don't we do it for sport when not in sports?

Do tell.

Some people are that way and don't fully realize that what they are doing really bugs some people (I'm one of those who doesn't like to be touched, like you.)
You might just want to mention to him in a, non-confrontational way, that it bothers you when he touches you and that you would appreciate that he doesn’t touch you. I he doen’t ‘get it’ then it’s time to talk to his manager. If he’s at the top, find a good lawyer and good luck on your job search.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Yeah, I am going to say something as soon as I get to a level headed point and think out what/how. I had been just letting it go, but this one is too far. I shouldn't have let it go to begin with and it wouldn't have progressed to something like this.

Yes, you should not have let it go in the first place. But still you can straight away tell that you don't like it, period. Somehow i get the feeling that things will get better after this

Just tell him you don't swing that way...
If he didn't mean it that way, he'll be so embarrassed that he'll stop. If he did, it's just informative and he'll stop...
Either way, you might not have to kill him

|

Have you tried telling him you don't like to be touched and it bothers you when he does it even though you know he means well?
It's an OO world.

No because, up to this point, I didn't think it was worth it. He didn't do it very often, and I know he meant well. However after this time I'm going to.

He's probably confused by those ass-less chaps you wear.
