I’m being sexually harassed and stalked at my work and my DM is doing nothing about it

Not sure if this belongs here exactly but it’s work related so here it goes. I work for a Medical Marijuana dispo and the other day this guy came in and I had to cash him out. At first I didn’t recognize him but after he said several times “it’s nice to see you again” I recognized him as a guy I met once randomly and chatted with for litterally 15 minutes before leaving because he made me feel super uncomfortable. I was single at the time and gave him my number when he asked without really thinking about it. However, when he asked me to sleep with him within the first few minutes of our convo and got really weird whenever I asked him questions about himself I decided I didnt want to have anything to do with him and left. That incident was nearly a year ago and…

I work for a Medical Marijuana dispo and the other day this guy came in and I had to cash him out. At first I didn’t recognize him but after he said several times “it’s nice to see you again” I recognized him as a guy I met once randomly and chatted with for litterally 15 minutes before leaving because he made me feel super uncomfortable. I was single at the time and gave him my number when he asked without really thinking about it. However, when he asked me to sleep with him within the first few minutes of our convo and got really weird whenever I asked him questions about himself I decided I didnt want to have anything to do with him and left.

That incident was nearly a year ago and he harrased me through texts for weeks before I asked him to stop and blocked him. I didn’t block his number at first because I wanted fo know how frequently he was messaging me and if he ever said anything about coming to my work. I told him what company I worked for as most small talk begins but never what location specifically.

Anyway, I eventually forgot about the whole interaction and put him out of my mind thinking that would be the end of it. For my job you have to have a medical marijuana license to shop at our store and I knew 100% that he did not have one at the time I met him. So, when I realized he was the one I was cashing out it sent chills down my spine.

This guy literally waited months, went through the process of obtaining his MMJ license, paid $200 + to get it and shopped at multiple stores in the area till he found me. He made several inappropriate comments towards me while I finished his transaction like asking for my schedule and complimenting different parts of my appearance while I remained utterly silent.

It felt so incredibly violating to know this man, after all this time, is still going out of his way to try to get access to me and now that he knows exactly what location I’m at I’m beyond freaked out.

I, of course, immediately notified my store manager and district manager to make them aware of the situation. My store manager took it very seriously and said they’ll always be walking me to my car from now on and that I never have to face him in the store again and can hide in the break room if he comes. My DM however took nealry three days to respond to me before saying, since nothing serious hs taken place yet, they cannot ban him from our store. Meanwhile this guy has come back to the store every single day since he found out that I work there.
