I am a 19 year old male Security Guard having to deal with weird behavior with my supervisor. This all started about 9 months ago at my new job about a month or 2 after I started. My supervisor (42M) started bringing in his personal drone to show it off to the guys to see their reaction. I have always thought they were cool cause I was always been into technology since I was a kid. He continued to bring in new drones that he would get to show them off. Then one day on my shift I see something flying in the air, assumed it was possibly a plane cause I work not far from a airport but I was mistaken. My boss comes in talks about different behaviors that I was doing and then told me how he was using his drone to monitor my behavior. Internally I was freaking the F out! But played it cool and told him hey this isn't cool with me that's overstepping his position. He gave a bullsh*t excuse of he's allowed to monitor me and that he had permission, so I let it go. Then a few weeks later again caught his drone monitoring me and gave him the talk about how I'm not ok with this and its creepy and I would call the cops and he told me I have no evidence and they will do nothing. Few weeks after that it happened again, and layed it down the next time he did it I'm calling the cops or were gonna have an issue so he stopped. now about month ago he decided to bring it in again, I was infuriated but kept my mouth shut cause I was still processing his stupidity. So when I got home called HR gave them a report and talked to his higher-ups as well as the police and they said that the technically can't do anything cause he possibly has permission and that basically because of his position it's a blurred line. The cops told me to call my site that I work at higher ups to see if he had permission, HE DID NOT!!! He had permission from the place he sat and thought that was ok, like WTF. So a few days later everyone thought it was creepy that I've discussed this with and told this is going to immediately be taken care of, or so I thought. I had a few days off and tried relaxing about it then I decided to call the day before I went in and got put on the phone with the bad manager and basically got told he wasn't doing anything illegal and that it won't happen again and basically he got a slap on the wrist. This guy has a kid and a wife, what if his wife supervisor started doing that to her or teachers started using them to monitor the kids? AITA for wanting to get a restraining order?
