I say call the company now, Zenkitty, and then back it up with a letter.

Zenkitty,
I still think you should lock your doors. The whole things sounds really disturbing to me. This is quite a misreading of the situation. He shouldn't be coming on to customers anyway. Can you find another company to do the regular maintenance?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Jesus, now I feel like it was my fault for sending the wrong signals. When flirting goes past "innocent fun" to "serious" I don't know how to stop it. Especially if it comes with touching. I should be able to say OKAY STOP but I just freeze. I feel like I've already led them on too far and it's my fault. Crap, I'm actually shaking and I've got tears in my eyes. This is silly, he's gone now and I wasn't in any danger anyway.

That was not your fault.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Not at all your fault IN ANY WAY.

SO not your fault, Zen. But I realize rational thought may not be in play right now.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Contractors that go into homes with women should NOT act that way! CREEPTASTIC!

not your mom's socks.
So not your fault Zenkitty - that's completely inappropriate and unprofessional on his part, not to mention CREEPY. I'm for locking down and having a friend come by, for starters.

Ew, ew, ew, Zenkitty. You are totally entitled to be freaked out. And if he calls you again and says anything inappropriate, call the company.
There are men out there who get off on making women uncomfortable like that: I don't know whether they think it's just sexual tension, or because it's just a fun display of their "manly power", but it's totally inappropriate, especially in that situation.

I don't know anyone in this town, certainly not anyone I could/would call to come over and comfort me when nothing's actually happened and I'm just being pathetic.
