A. George works very hard as a restaurant cook and feels the other cooks are not carrying their weight. This is causing conflict among the cooks. George decides to talk about the other cooks with the waitresses. This causes tension and conflict among the employees at the restaurant.

B. Mary did not receive the promotion she felt she deserved. She decides to deliberately instigate a work slow-down which in turn casts the supervisor in a bad light. As a result, and due to the fact that it was a slow month, all employees' hours have been reduced.

C. Briana works at a salon. She is jealous that the other stylists have a larger clientele base than she does. She is participating in malicious gossip with her customers about other stylists' work or abilities.

D. Roxanne works in a day care center. She has been observed arriving to work late and with a disheveled appearance. The other employees are doing some of Roxanne's duties. When the manager shows up at the day care center, Roxanne often wants to get credit for work she has not performed. This makes the other employees angry.
