Below are the four situations which were presented in the lesson. Each situation had four possible decisions. The student rated each decision according to how acceptable the decision will be to both the employer and the employee. The scale is from -100 (totally unacceptable) to +100 (totally acceptable).

CASE STUDY #1 Harold and Sarah have two children in elementary school. Harold and Sarah both work in the city but live in the suburbs because the schools are better. They ride to work together to reduce commuting costs. Two or three times each month Harold is late to work because of heavy traffic between Sarah's workplace and his workplace. They could leave for work earlier, but that would mean leaving for work before the children have gone to school. Harold always apologizes to his supervisor for being late.

CASE STUDY #2 Josh has been late twice this week. He works a second job at night and sometimes doesn't hear the alarm and oversleeps. Josh would like to cut down on the hours he works at this second job but can't because he needs the money. His supervisor knows about the second job and hasn't said anything to Josh about being late.
