Re: Obcene e-mail picture
If possible try to preserve the email and the photo by emailing it to yourself and/or printing it. If this has been going on for 2 years you most likely have a sexual harassment claim if the company has more than 15 employees. If it has less, you may still have a claim under some local statute. See an attorney immediately. In the meantime, try to reconstruct a diary of all the instances you can remember over the 2 year period. Does your company have a sexual harassment policy or a method of reporting harassment? Find out how to do it or you may not be able to go forward with your claim. Good luck.
