It's possible, I suppose, but I have a hard time imagining such a situation. What do you mean by low-grade physical assault? I'm not talking about an accidental touch or bumping.

IMHO, there is no "low-grade physical" assault in an office environment, because physical interaction of any kind is so frowned upon. What would be low-grade in the playground becomes "are you insane?" in an adult office setting.

Maybe a part of the reason it's not "are you insane?" on the playground is because that's how we've (incorrectly) chosen to handle playgrounds.

I see a lot more problems in offices than I do in playgrounds.

Just saying.
