person was hired two days ago and you, being a team player, asked him/her to join you for lunch. Your coworkers saw you and have started gossiping about the friendly lunch you and the new co-worker had together. What do you do in this situation? I would say please don't say that about me, we just had lunch together, and I don't appreciate it. Your coworker, Billy, is always complaining about the amount of work he has to do. His moral is bringing the entire department down. How can you encourage Billy to be more positive about his work? I would say Billy I have lots of work to do also, lets get through this together and go ahead and get it done. Dominique is a close friend of yours, as well as a coworker. She has recently started dating someone new and is frequently coming into work late and leaving early. Naturally, her work is starting to get behind. As a friend, you have helped her with a couple of deadlines, but it is becoming a routine. How can you resolve this ongoing situation with your friend, Dominique? I would say Dominique I'm not going to be able to do your work anymore I have my own to do and it is putting me behind. You love to work as a team! Your department consists of five coworkers including yourself and has always

worked well together. When the boss compliments the team for a job well done, Dillon is always the first to take credit for the work. You, as well as the other members of the team are getting frustrated. How can you resolve this problem and still be able to work together as a team? I would tell him that the rest of the team would like to get credit also since we all did it together.

He is giving you every detail from the time he woke up on Saturday morning to the time he walked into work on Monday. Your boss if expecting the budget report within the hour, what do you do? I would ask him if he could finish the story when I finish the report. As you are working at your desk, you hear two of your co-workers gossiping. The topic is YOU. The new person was hired two days ago and you, being a team player, asked him/her to join you for lunch. Your coworkers saw you and have started gossiping about the friendly lunch you and the new co-worker had together. What do you do in this situation? I would either ignore it, or politley tell them I was just being nice to the new co-worker. Your coworker, Billy, is always complaining about the amount of work he has to do. His moral is bringing the entire department down. How can you encourage Billy to be more positive about his work?

Murderer

Sheriff

• The Murderer kills people by winking at them when in eye contact.

• When the Sheriff is winked at by the Murderer, he 'kills' the Murderer

• The Murderer's role is to kill all of the Citizens without being killed by the Sheriff. • If the Murderer finds out who the Sheriff is, it would be smart for them to actively avoid winking at them.

• Their role is to find out who the Murderer is, and then attempt to get winked at. • They are not allowed to communicate any person's role.

• Not allowed to communicate any person's role.

Citizens

Rules

• The citizen is like a poker chip. They do nothing except are used as "winning tokens".

Create an email message to your employees that is 3-7 sentences long that will get your point across! Remember that this is their first warning and you should not threaten the employees or be rude, but be firm and say what you mean.

STEP 2: At the end of your email, type: Your first and last name - Manager Wendy’s #11035 100 Florida Road Adel, GA 31620

STEP 3: Be sure to create an appropriate and effective subject line that will catch your employees’ attention based on what you will be discussing in your email.

This has been an issue that has been happening for a while and there needs to be a stop to it. Each employee should remind the other employees in their section to clock out for breaks. As manager I will make sure this issue doesn't continue and if it does I will terminate employees who continue to do this.

Dear employees, I must address an issue here at work.Employees have been eating the food for free that we use to sell. This issue needs to stop. All the food that you're eating for free is taking money out of my pocket. Please stop eating the food if you haven't paid for it. You can buy the food on break or after work because you shouldn't be eating during your shift anyways. Lets all resolve this issue and have a great day at work.

Annah Lokey <15229@cookhornets.org > Lori Carter <Icarter@cook.k12.ga.us > 10/20/2015 8:59 AM Employees clocking out

Wendy's employees,

I have recently noticed that when most of you take a break you do not clock out therefore you are getting paid to take a break. This is not okay because this business is losing money. Therefore, everyone needs to start clocking out when they take a break or they will be given a warning and they next punishment will be more severe.
