DEALING WITH PROBLEMS. EXERCISE 8

1.      At first a man arrived to his work late. He began his work   driving a forklift truck  transporting the mail of the day to put it in the correct office in the company.

Suddenly he crashed  and the mail was broken. Any way he continued with his work and he left in the manager’s office a box that contained a computer. When the manager opened the box saw that the computer’s screen was broken.

2.     The people is going to say that this employee doesn’t do his work correctly, and  he may be fired from the job.

3.     I would investigate what happened exactly and I would ask the employee to be carefull when he drives the forklift in the future. I also would ask him to pay for the broken computer.
