While working for Shaw Coastal on a survey crew, John Cherry said he endured months of harassment from his supervisor, Michael Reasoner. The interactions allegedly started with Reasoner making Cherry uncomfortable by brushing against him, escalating to more obvious physical contact like Reasoner putting his hand on Cherry's butt.
Reasoner also regularly talked about Cherry's looks, asking him to take off his pants and his shirt. By the next month, Reasoner was sending Cherry explicit text messages, like, "I want cock," and "ur 2 sexy. U drive me insane. ... Ur sexy voice puts me to slumber."
