Unit 1 - Managers

In class, we talked about how UPS would send their managers to a camp to teach them how to be more empathetic and personable. I felt that UPS didn't just want to have their managers come off as robots and only go by the book. When I was 17, I worked at McDonalds' and I remember one of my co-workers had just become the father. Before the baby was a week old, he/she had already started to experience health problems, so severe that the child needed to be taken to the docotr. When my co-worker, asked off work to take his newborn child to the doctor, he was denied. I didn't understand how I could get off of work for a track meet with any questions asked, but a new father couldn't get off of work to take care of his newborn child.
