Bad News Letter Dear Mr. Waters: Unfortunately, we cannot allow you to apply the lease payments you’ve been making for the past ten months toward the purchase of your Sako 600 copier. Company policy does not allow such conversion. Have you ever wondered why we can offer such low leasing and purchase prices? Obviously, we couldn’t stay in business long if we agreed to proposals such as yours. You’ve had the Sako 600 copier for ten months now, Mr. Waters, and you say like its versatility and reliability. Perhaps we could interest you in another Sako model – one that’s more within your price range. Do give us a call. Sincerely, Dear Mr. Waters: We’re happy to learn that you are enjoying the use of the Sako copier you’ve been leasing for the past ten months. Like our many customers, you have discovered that Sako copiers offer remarkable versatility and reliability. One of the reasons we’re able to offer these outstanding copiers at such low leasing rates and equally low purchase prices is that we maintain a slim profit margin. If our program included a provision for applying lease payments toward the purchase price, our overall prices would have to be higher. Although lease payments cannot be credited toward purchase price, we can offer you other Sako models that are within your price range. The Sako 400 delivers the same reliability with nearly as many features as the Sako 600. Please let us demonstrate the Sako 400 to your staff in your office, Mr. Waters. Our representative, Tracy Wilson, will call you soon to arrange a time.

Kim, the front desk manager, says, "Good morning, John," but John simply ignores her, punches in, and heads into the shop to his workplace. Kim rolls her eyes, picks up the phone, and dials the on-duty manager to alert her that John just arrived and should be reaching his workplace at that moment. Savannah is the lead on a project with a team of six other people. The project involves using an outside vendor’s software. Without consulting Savannah, Amber (a senior team member) sends a professional email to the vendor asking for a change to the existing software. The vendor responds to the entire team expressing concern over making the requested change. Paul has worked for the company four years. During that time, he had one manager and three difference supervisors without any major conflicts. Due to a merger, the management structure changed and Paul’s former manager Pat is now the general manager. Sharon, Paul’s new manager, has a meeting with Paul over concerns that proper protocol is not being followed. Sharon tells Paul he must conform to the proper procedures or he will be written up. Paul protests as the process he uses was designed as a work around by Pat. Sharon writes Paul up for insubordination.
