Legally speaking, no. Unwanted touching of a person or persons property is defined as assault.

However, it would appear that such an action would be deemed by the courts as an act of playfulness.

In order to have broken the law you must meet the two legal definitions, which are:

Mens rea - or guilty mind. You must be competent to understand your actions.

Actus reus - or guilty act. You must of knowingly understood that your actions were illegal.

Answer

No. Your supervisor has no right to touch you during work hours and you must make it clear that the contact is unwelcome. If it continues you must report it to your supervisors superiors. No employee should live in dread of their supervisor thumping or flicking them on the head while they are at work. That action is completely out of bounds, creates a hostile work environment for you and constitutes a form of harassment and bullying.

What are the Frosty the Snowman Lyrics?

Frosty the Snowman lyrics Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul, With a corncob pipe and a button nose And two eyes made out of coal. Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say, He was made of snow but the children Know how he came to life one day. There must have been some magic in that Old silk hat they found. For when they placed it on his head He began to dance around. O, Frosty the snowman Was alive as he could be, And the children say he could laugh And play just the same as you and me. Thumpetty thump thump, Thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go. Thumpetty thump thump, Thumpety thump thump, Over the hills of snow. Frosty the snowman knew The sun was hot that day, So he said, "Let's run and We'll have some fun Now before I melt away." Down to the village, With a broomstick in his hand, Running here and there all Around the square saying, Catch me if you can. He led them down the streets of town Right to the traffic cop. And he only paused a moment when He heard him holler "Stop!" For Frosty the snow man Had to hurry on his way, But he waved goodbye saying, "Don't you cry, I'll be back again some day." Thumpetty thump thump, Thumpety thump thump, Look at Frosty go. Thumpetty thump thump, Thumpety thump thump, Over the hills of snow.
