    People like that look after their own - they will shamelessly show favouritism and ridicule anyone else to keep their position.

    Either try sucking up to him or walk out. Walking out isn't that bad, if done right, I have done it many times and never looked back. Just start researching other jobs and when you get one, just say you wanted a change and leave.

    There are usually many outlets in the workforce today to protect employees from a harassing work environment.

    Human Resources, Compliance Hotlines, Grievance Process. Even if enough of you complain to senior management, action is likely to be taken. I guarantee you they are already aware of the high turnover in his department.

    So basically you can confront him, report him or quit. Three choices. If I was in your shoes, I would probably start documenting all the unprofessional behavior, inappropriate comments, etc. with dates and times and eyewitnesses. Then when I had reached a breaking point, I would take that documentation along with a couple of other colleagues and report this jerk to Human Resources. If you are working in a decent company, they will take action. If they don't do anything about your complaint, that's a pretty good sign you don't need to be working there any way.

    Good luck!

    Be on the look out for some nice job. It is not difficult to find one in this age. If you are such a worthy person, you must really be employable. The best revenge would be to make yourself so indispensable and quit. If you have to perforce remain in the same organisation, the alternative to quitting and yet solve the problem is to report the matter the higher up in the ladder.

    I would take it to you human resources dept. His behavior is inappropriate and would consisitute being harassed. You have a legal claim here!
