i'm getting a female manager to say what needs to be said or i'm sending it to HR.

there was one time where i had the world's worst director and her clown ass directed me to tell one of my direct reports that her v-neck had too much V and too much neck cuz her goods were all on display.

i told her i didn't feel comfortable doing it and she insisted.

rather than go around her and involve HR, i had the convo with the worker.

it was awkward as hell but i finessed it with personality and luckily we had a good rapport so it didn't turn into something bad like it could have.

i used it as an excuse to take a 2 hour lunch that day and the director didn't care cuz when i returned, the difficult conversation that she didn't want to have was done...
