An employee uses company property for his personal use. "Nice poster," you say as you walk past the bulletin board. Steve's HOA is having community Garage Sale this weekend. Then you notice that the poster was printed at work on company stock. An employee is trying to discredit a co-worker. "You'll never believe what Vivian did," Ross confided at lunch. "She told the Smiths she can get them a 20% price break if they sign a contract today." You know the truth because you helped Vivian get the contract. Why is Ross out to discredit Vivian. An employee engages in horseplay. Bill is such a clown! The problem is not everybody's laughing. He locked Sara out of her office last week and forgot where he hid the keys and put glue on Chris' pen just before a meeting. Bill is well-intentioned: He thinks his humor makes people feel better. An employee refuses to work with a person she dislikes. "What's wrong with that Sartini woman on your staff?" Joe asks. "All I asked was please expedite a critical supply requisition and she screamed at me to get lost." You know Ms. Sartini doesn't like Joe but have told her it is still her job to take care of all staff supply needs.
