So I am VERY careful now who I flirt with at work. Hmm... I guess it still hasn't stopped me though. lol

That's why I am very leery to be in an office and doing an individual with a female client. Due to the nature and confidentiality, I have to close the door. Once in there a female client can start screaming and I'll be gone, my license will be gone and everything I worked for will be history.
This is why I had to go to admin over changing female beds. I flatly refused to change a bed if there was a female client in there asleep. All she has to do is wake up, I startle her, and she screams bloody rape.
In the business we are very aware that there are some addicts that will do for money to supply their habit. The company I work for may believe my innocence, but if said female got a good attorney and he threatened to go to the media, the company would hang me out to dry. They'd probably fire me, let her sue me (have me pay for my own attorney even), then if I lost they'd sue me for defamation and damages.
And if I won and proved my innocence, I still wouldn't have a job, my reputation and prestige would still be shot and there wouldn't be a damned thing I could do to get any of it back.
Course I'm paranoid and a fatalist when it comes to this subject.
