Harmless? Maybe. But my natural reaction would be to terminate with extreme prejudice.
Or run away screaming like a little girl.
While running away screaming like a little girl you trip and fall.
Ankle sprang, wrist cracked, and slight concussion.
ER visit >$800. Plus possible overnight stay in hospital and time off work.
Not what I consider harmless.
Of course I am talking about my wife or kids, not me.
