Tad Pierson has been handed quite a task within the company with which he works. Tad has been tasked with taking over the survey group, as well as maintaining his current position as Project Engineer. Tad is employed by Agrigreen, Inc., a company that manufactures agricultural fertilizers. The company has also branched out over the last few years, staking mining claims in Nevada, and building pipelines. Tad has accepted the responsibility and assessed his teams, determining that there are valid foundations for the problems and conflicts within the groups, and has reported to Burt Jacobs, the new manager of engineering, that he has met with the group members individually to gather facts and will make his determination as to the direction the department needs to take to grow and prosper. Tad has three employees within the surveyor team that he must decide how to best manage to continue with the company growth, and alleviate the discord and conflicts between the teams. Howard Lineberry has been employed …show more content…
Howard feels that he has more experience and as lead surveyor, he should have been afforded the opportunity for the overtime that came with the pipeline and the stake mining claims in Nevada. The discord between Howard and the engineers is quite evident and when the expansion forced more space to be needed, Howard was extremely happy to be moved off-site. While Lee Miller was his supervisor, leaving him to his own accord in an off-site facility, Howard has developed habits of tardiness, leaving early, and napping on company time. Howard has developed a dislike for his job and now dreads coming to work. The temporary position filled by Vince, with whom he bonded, is completed now that Mel Cutler is returning to the department, and is now apprehensive about his future under the supervision of Tad
In 2003, Peggy Sue Thomas learned from her boss, Brenna Douglas, that her husband was abusive. After hearing this, Thomas told this information to her boyfriend James Huden, who then decided that he was going to kill Russell Douglas. It was speculated that Huden wanted to kill Douglas because he was abused as a child and was taking out his anger on Douglas (Sullivan, 2013). The two decided to come up with a plan and kill Russell. Then, on December 26, 2003, Thomas lured Douglas into a remote area on Whidbey Island saying that she wanted to meet him because she had a gift for his wife Brenna. Little did Russell know that Thomas’s boyfriend Huden was waiting for him. After arriving, Russell was confronted by Huden, who then proceeded to shoot Russell in the head with a .380-caliber
MILLERSBURG — A Millersburg man on Monday denied charges he forced his way into and stole meat and candy from a business in the days surrounding Christmas 2014.
The plaintiff, Brian Seamons, was assaulted in the locker room by a group of his teammates by grabbing him, forcibly restraining him, and bounded to a towel rack with highly adhesive athletic tape. Brian was exposed and his fellow team members and a girl who Brian had dated in the past to see him. Brian reported this episode to the school authorities and the football coach. The coach blamed Brian for selling out the group and the school authorities crossed out the last playoff match because of this episode. Brian needed to move to an alternate school because of the environment this incident created. Brian brings this suit under Title IX by expressing that he was dealt with distinctively in light of his gender. He contends that he was
Nova Scotia politician Steve Sampson, a member of Richmond County council says that he has been blackmailed over a mail escort. Sampson says that he recently received an anonymous letter that shows a call from his hotel room to a male escort agency. In the letter, the blackmailer had written that they will release a copy of a hotel bill from February 2014, unless Sampson resigns from his position and promises not to run for office again. Sampson had later confirmed that the bill included a phone call to a male escort service, incurred while he was on county business in Seattle, Washington. Sampson said that he trusted local residents to weigh the motives of the blackmailer against his conduct during twenty-five years as a councilor. He said
Penny Ann Beernsten, a thirty-six year old small business co-owner and physical fitness instructor, went through a traumatic experience on the afternoon of July 29, 1985. She jogged at a stretch of Lake Michigan shoreline in Wisconsin. She was planning on meeting with her father at the beach at 4:00 PM and she started the jog at 3:50 PM, but was grabbed and taken to the woods where she was raped and deprived her of oxygen by suffocation until she passed out. When she woke up, she walked out of the woods, where couples comforted her until she found her husband and finally the police. (Possley).

During our negotiation with D.G. Barnhouse (DGB), we intend to utilize an integrative bargaining strategy with management. Before coming to this conclusion, we weighed the advantages and disadvantages of a distributive approach, however, we eventually decided to take an integrative and predominantly interest based stance versus a position based stance in our negotiations after assessing internal and external environmental factors. In addition, we settled on this strategy because we ultimately believe that management and the union share at the very least, one fundamental common interest, which is the firm’s financial stability. That being said, even with our plans to use integrative bargaining, we still plan to negotiate assertively to achieve
Background and Facts of the Case In 1999, Ahmad Edwards attempted to steal a pair of shoes from a department store. When Edwards realized that a security guard witnessed his attempt, he pulled out a gun, and fired three shots at the guard (Morris & Frierson, 2008). The shots missed the guard, but one wounded a bystander in the leg. Edwards was then arrested and charged with theft, criminal recklessness, battery with a deadly weapon, and attempted murder.
The underlying issues in both cases are racial discrimination. For Cheryl Boulden in the affirmative action case the issue is being “an African American woman among the good ol’ boys in Indiana.” She was recruited because of race and her permanent handicap was seen as an asset for a diversity program lacking any. Yet these qualities made her a target of racism. Susan Finn’s ethnic discrimination presents a dilemma of how to deal with a contract physician’s abusive behavior “toward Hispanics and female staff as well as patients” (Reeves, 2006, p. 79). While the issues of racial and gender discrimination is not unusual, the failure of these agencies to address multiple complaints is.

A passion is something that makes you drive forward in life, but not something you want or that you are trying to get. In the novel The Contender by Robert Lipsyte, there is a high school dropout who does not know what he is going to do with his life while everyone around him is either reaching their goals or slowly dying. In The Contender people without a passion seem to die off and it is the same about people with bad passions. The high school dropout, Alfred is very lost and does not know what to do in life. Alfred’s best friend James is also a dropout and later on in the book a drug addict. Major, a drug dealer tries to pull down Alfred, his only passion is drugs and money. In the context of The Contender people with a
“This,” Terrill announced, “is the reason for the lack of productivity in the Sales Engineering division. These are the reports your people require every month. The fact that they sat on my desk all month shows that no one reads this material. I suggest that the engineers’ time could be used in a more productive manner, and that one brief monthly report from my office will satisfy the needs of the other departments.”
The immediate goal for the resort with four weeks to go in Wellands contract is for Humphries to meet with Boddington and Welland within the next week and ensure the rest of the summer seasons operations are completed effectively. That is, with no confrontations between Boddington and Welland. Next, corporate office must ensure that the resorts processes are reviewed, enhanced as necessary, and fully communicated to staff by the start of next season. Finally, through the use of both internal and external training, corporate office through Humphries must enhance Boddingtons managerial skills. Accomplishment of this goal would be based on her performance review by Humphries.
