Phil invited them to come see him, and they did, with the company's lawyer with them. No matter how much people hate the Bucks, Phil should have expected them to come see him after he said to come see him.

Yes, I would say it 100% is. My boss has an “open door policy.” It doesn’t literally mean you can just go in whenever you like lol. Also, I’m pretty sure Punk said that about mentoring guys. His locker room is always open. It doesn’t mean you can go in for whatever reasons whenever you want and if he doesn’t want someone in there he’s a massive hypocrite. THAT is what is called a figure of speech.
In the scrum, Punk said something along the lines of “if you’ve got something to say to me, I’ll walk the aisles of this place — let’s go.” That’s not the same as saying “Come into my locker room if you want to fight.” Also, The Bucks went and…yep, they got a fight (we’ve got no clue if Punk’s side is even backing away from the fight or if it’s something they stand by). We don’t know his side is even complaining they went or it’s just them complaining they did and got whacked (I don’t know what they expected to happen).
The whole Megha thing is weird, because you’d think the legal counsel would have the sense to say “Look, we shouldn’t do this.” That’s why I’m asking the question about whether yanks think it is OK. Over here, you see that, it doesn’t promote safety, it threatens with the opposite. For example: If Punk has it in his contract that when appropriate, he has his own space and people can’t just walk into his locker room whenever they want — and Megha knows this — seeing them violate that could very reasonable be interpreted as “OK, they clearly aren’t here kindly because they’re willing to breach my contract and invade my personal space and that cunt is just saying it’s OK.” I don’t know why Megha is a calming factor at all — especially if she’s as deep in as some speculate.
If Tony wanted to discipline Punk for the scrum (and that’s an if, because he didn’t discipline Page), then it would have been a phone call or arranged meeting later, right? That’s how things would work over here, which is why I’m asking. Too many people have made it seem way too normal for a manager or executive to just storm into a locker room, office, toilet, what have you because they didn’t like something the employee did. Over here, that would be considered GROSSLY inappropriate and incompetent.
