Upon graduation Tom began work as a junior manager in a busy logistics company.As part of his duties, Tom was assigned the task of supervising the updating of the files of all clients within two weeks.As he was very busy from the get-go and also keen to impress his new employers, Tom advised the two staff members working on the updating of the files that they could do some of the work from home in order to meet the deadline. As a result of this all the files were updated on time.Tom, who was very pleased, invited the two staff members for a drink after work.During the evening, Mary, one of the staff told Tom that she had been worried that the client files would end up online as she lost a USB key containing all of the information, two weeks previously.Tom advised her that if the information had not appeared within two weeks, it was more likely than not that she had simply mislaid it at home. He warned her not to discuss the incident with any other member of staff.
