Scene to read · Professionalism, Ethics

Everyone posts about work

You work at a pet supply store.

An hour ago a customer shouted at your coworker Mina over a refund and called her useless before leaving. In the stockroom, Mina and Jonah, your closest friends at work, are filming a short comic re-enactment for Mina's social media account.

The scene

Mina: She called me useless in front of the whole store. I need to laugh about it.

Jonah: No name, no face, no logo. It's about us, not her.

Mina: You were there. You saw how she talked to me.

Jonah: We need a third person to play the manager. Are you in?

The two questions

  1. 1What would you say and do?
  2. 2Where is the line between blowing off steam about work and being unprofessional?
