SAMPLE SCENARIOS
1. AUTOMOBILE REPAIR SHOP
Mary is a new employee at Art's Foreign Car Repair. She is 28 years old with
12 years experience in the trade, including Tech School. Her co-workers
include Mike and Steve who have worked at Art's for more than 10 years.
Even though it's obvious that Mary knows her stuff, Mike can't help but offer
her suggestions and help, especially when some physical task is involved. She
understands his perspective, but it annoys her nonetheless. Steve assumes
Mary knows nothing, avoids working with her, and directs comments at her
that question her skill level. His behavior angers her. Art, the owner, is
sympathetic to Mary, but he doesn't want to alienate Mike or Steve. How is
this situation resolved?
2. THE HAIR SALON
Mike has just been hired by a busy urban hair salon, Hair Today, Gone
Tomorrow. At first he gets along fine with his co-workers, Jill, Annie, and Beth.
But as the weeks pass, Mike notices that many of their comments are
suggesting that he is gay. Jill and Annie often point out "cute" guys to Mike,
while Beth seems to be a little nervous around him. Most recently she
confronted him about his "dangerous" lifestyle and offered him advice about
AIDS testing. On every occasion Mike has protested, saying that he is straight
and their comments are hurtful. They laugh in a knowing way and respond
that he is just nervous about coming "out," and why doesn't he trust them.
How does the situation get resolved?
3. THE BUILDING SITE
Kyle and Pete have been partners in a construction business for several years.
They are building a house in Hadley, which is a fairly long drive for both of
them, but the house should be profitable and it will be interesting to build.
Carol is a young building inspector for the town of Hadley. Kyle and Pete
decide to backfill the foundation before it has been signed off by the building
inspector, feeling that they can plead innocence because of their relative
