Firm leadership should immediately make it clear that anyone who is present in our offices should be treated as if they are a client. I don't care what color they are, what they're wearing, what their gender is, etc. If it happened to this associate, it's happened to others. Be a fucking professional or work somewhere else. This is a place of business.
That's how I'd handle it, but we're a Boston-based firm, so we won't do anything like that.
