Multiple Choice
Jack, a rather boisterous but well-liked British chap, had a roommate from Thailand, named Pitchit. They seemed to get on fairly well and Jack remarked to one of his U.S. American friends how easy Pitchit was to live with compared with some of his previous roommates. However, several months later, Pitchit suddenly announced that he was moving out next week. Jack was quite upset and puzzled, and asked Pitchit why. At first Pitchit was reticent about saying anything, but after persistent questioning he told Jack that he could not tolerate his habits - Jack was always playing loud music, had friends visiting at all hours, and was untidy. Jack reacted by pressing him as to why he had not told him before... he had not realized that he was disturbing Pitchit in any way. Pitchit said nothing.
According to this critical incident what is the most likely reason Pitchit didn't tell Jack previously of his dissatisfactions?
A) He was scared about angering Jack since Jack had been there first.
B) Using a direct style to confront Jack directly was not his style of communicating.
C) He felt overwhelmed by Jack's boisterous behavior and was uneasy.
D) Jack's cooperative style of communicating made him feel ashameD.
