Casper scenario · Scene to read · Professionalism, Ethics
Quoting the kitchen before the holidays
You coordinate jobs for a small home renovation company.
A family wants their kitchen finished before relatives arrive for the holidays, eight weeks away. Jobs like it take eight to ten weeks, and supplier delays are common this year. In the office, your boss, Gail, and your coworker Tomás, who runs the crew, are going over the quote with you.
