You are the owner of a new pet grooming boutique called Cats Rule-Dogs Obey. You will need to hire three groomers. In addition to grooming cats and dogs, the groomers will be responsible for scheduling appointments, keeping the boutique clean and stock with pet products, maintaining the privacy of both owners and the pets, opening and closing the boutique and handling customer concerns and questions. Generally, as a new owner you plan to be at the boutique during most of the open hours, however there will be times that you will have to step out and depend on the groomers to be in charge.

As the owner, think about statements that you want your employees to understand as critical for the reputation and well-being of the boutique and the clients! What does an ethical groomer mean to you and your business? Make sure to capture this information in your written code.
