You have a part-time job in a local coffee shop, which is part of a chain of cafés. You received the job through your parent's friendship with Tina Presley, the coffee shop manager. The job is going well, but you are puzzled by the actions of Tina and her husband, Sean. Each day, one or both of them fills takeout orders and takes them to Tina's office. Later you notice Sean and Tina enjoying the takeout orders, sometimes with friends. You know the orders were not rung through the checkout counter. When you ask a co-worker about the practice, you are told that Tina is the boss and can do as she wishes, and besides, many employees help themselves to meals.
Required
