Demarco just graduated from Texas University and had been snatched up by Xeon Natural Resources Incorporated, one of the top natural resource extraction companies in the world. Because he was Brazilian, bilingual, and spoke several specific Brazilian dialects, his stationing in Brazil was a no-brainer. Xeon was deeply involved with a project within the Brazilian rain forests in mining an extremely valuable element called niobium. Niobium is a rare earth element essential for micro-alloying steel as well as other products such as jet engines, rocket subassemblies, superconducting magnets, and super alloys.

Xeon discovered a large niobium deposit and estimates the corporation could make an additional $5 billion in profits over the next two decades. Demarco soon discovered he was one of several employees assigned to explain to the indigenous population that Xeon wanted to extract the…

To Fire or Not to Fire? David Butler is a former drug user who has spent time in jail. For the past three years, he has been straight, as far as everyone knows. Currently, David operates a forklift for Adams, Inc., a small construction company. Lately, David has begun having seizures, or “flashbacks,” due to his earlier use of the drug PCP. David has been carefully evaluated by EAP professionals and found to be clean of current drug use. The professionals say that flashbacks of this nature are quite common in ex-addicts. Mishandling of David’s machine could be potentially dangerous to him and his coworkers. David has already had some flashbacks while at the controls, and in every case, the seizure merely caused him to release the handle, which stopped the machine automatically. This is the only job David is qualified to do within the company. Should David be allowed to continue on the job? Why? Why not?

Wounded Knee 1One wintry night in 1890, about four hundred Native Americans set up camp near Wounded Knee Creek, South Dakota. 2When they awoke the next morning, they found themselves surrounded by U.S. soldiers. 3On the hilltop above were numerous machine guns. 4When the soldiers ordered the Native Americans to hand over any weapons they might have, they refused. 5The soldiers began searching for weapons. 6Then someone fired a shot. 7Immediately, the machine guns started blasting—slaughtering Native American men, women, and children. 8Within a short time, all were killed. 9Several days later, the frozen bodies were tossed into a common grave. 10Instead of condemning the soldiers, the government awarded the troop twenty-six Medals of Honor and labeled the event a “battle.” 11It was the last fought against the Native Americans, and so ending the American Indian wars.
