Jake supervises a staff of ten people. He holds required staff meetings every Thursday. For the past six months, Jake has reserved the first ten minutes of each staff meeting for what he calls a morale builder, during which the staff exchanges the latest jokes. The jokes are almost always of a sexual nature. Tom is a member of Jakes staff. He never participates in the morale builders and generally avoids them by arriving ten minutes late to staff meetings. Jake calls Tom into his office. He tells Tom that his habit of arriving late is unacceptable and warns him that he will receive a written reprimand the next time he is late. Tom tells Jake that the reason he arrives late is that he finds the dirty joke sessions offensive. Jake just repeats his warning.
