Tell HR about small-town creep on prowl?

DEAR AMY: I live in a very small resort town and work for a major hotel. In the last couple months our current general manager has made abusive comments to me and six female co-workers. He also has demoted women for no clear reason. These matters were brought up to the human resources department. He was reprimanded. Recently, I was at our local bar and it was brought to my attention that this same man is now coming on to other women in town who have no interest in him. I hear he is showing very aggressive behavior. The one woman I have spoken to wants to take action against him. My question is, should I tell her to contact our human resources department? Anonymous

DEAR ANONYMOUS: From your account, it sounds as if your company has dealt with this person's unacceptable professional behavior to your satisfaction.

Being a jerk, coming on to women in town, or acting obnoxiously isn't necessarily a matter for your company's human resources department.

If this man assaulted the woman you spoke to, she should call the police.

DEAR AMY: I want to comment on the letter from "Inconceivable." She was confused about why her husband didn't want to submit to fertility testing. Your observation was dead-on: He didn't want to have kids. I was that man. My wife and I got married way too early. Being "born-again Christians" I figured we were going to be together for life. I just didn't love her. My feelings were revealed in my unwillingness to have children. We are now cheerfully apart.Alone and Happy

DEAR ALONE: The issue of having children is the most important one a couple will face during their life together. Couples have to accept their partner's choice - or ambivalence - about children.
