Answer:

While in the restroom, you overhear your boss telling a colleague that Bob is going to be laid off at the end of the quarter in about two weeks’ time. Bob is a good friend of yours.Do you tell him? Why or why not?a.Response/Approach: UTILITARIANISMi.As a good friend you are, you could HIGHLY encourage Bob look for a newjob and infer that you heard that there are budget cuts going to be happening and “anyone” could be “laid off.”7.One of the newest salespeople in your division is a real goof-off, never showing up for work on time, distracting other people with his antics and so on. You complain about him to your boss, who tells you the kid is the son of the company president. Your boss instructs you not only to leave the new guy alone but also to make his sales numbers look good by throwing him some no-brainer accounts. What do you do?a.Response/Approach: INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITESi. As an employee of this company, you have the responsibility to report thisto a someone of higher status than just your boss. If your boss isn’t takingthe situation seriously, you need to stand up and tell higher authorities.ii.There is surely more people that are aware of this and if everyone aware backs you up, you can’t be fired or punished because then things would “become personal” and that can become a bigger issue that the presidentof the company is probably willing to deal with.
