$3.)$ In Chapter $30,$ which covers the basics of salary administration, your textbook author suggests that managers should not give an employee in need a raise because he or she is having personal problems $($page $198).$ Do you agree or disagree with this advice, or do you think this dilemma should be handled on a case$-$by$-$case basis, and why?
