A new coworker Mike Scialdone, the administrative assistant you’ve worked with for the past five years, is leaving the company; and Nancy Ramirez, an administrative assistant from another department, is being transferred to take his place. You do not know Nancy, but you have heard some comments about her from other employees in the offi ce. For instance, you have heard that Nancy doesn’t let anyone know when she is leaving for a break or lunch. She goes whenever she wants to, and she takes breaks at unusual times. In your department, you and Nancy will be required to cover for each other during breaks and lunches. You have also heard that Nancy is a hard worker, but she does only her own work and doesn’t offer to help others. While you and Mike are each responsible for your own assignments, over time you have made it a practice to share your work, always helping each other. Think about how you will start your relationship with Nancy. How will you handle the requirement to cover breaks and lunch? What will you do about the arrangement for helping each other with work?
