You are the manager of a chain of print shops, CopyMAX, and have just received some good news from your corporate office. Next Thursday is Independence Day, and all of your 85 employees will be given a paid vacation day. There's a problem, though. One of your biggest clients has asked for a rush-order that relates to their summer marketing campaign, and you need to produce 10,000 postcards, 95 large posters, and 10 banners by July 7. To complete the job, at least five of your staff members are going to have to work during the holiday, including one of your four graphic designers. You would like to ask for volunteers, but you need five employees. So, if fewer than five volunteer, you will assign employees based on seniority-those hired most recently will be asked to work. Employees who work during the holiday will have two options: they can be paid overtime at the time-and-a-half rate, or they can receive two vacation days. Write a memo to your employees and ask them to volunteer to work. Indicate what will happen if you don't get enough volunteers.
