Multiple Choice
Tamora has had a rough year. Thanks to a quick temper, she got into an altercation that landed her in jail, and she subsequently lost her job on an auto-parts assembly line. Now she is out of jail and trying to make a new start. The factory will take her back, but only as an unskilled laborer with a chance to work her way back to her old job. On the other hand, an Internet retailer needs customer service personnel, and in spite of her record with the law, they are willing to consider Tamora's application because she scored high on a battery of tests. Given the fact that both jobs offer about the same level of pay and benefits, the best option for Tamora is to
A) realize that both jobs represent dying industries and continue looking for a position that has more of a future.
B) give the Internet retail job a try because it does not involve physical labor and therefore will be better for her as she ages.
C) take the Internet retail job because it is part of a growing industry, but realize that she needs to work on her anger issues.
D) go back to the factory because she already has contacts there and stands a good chance of quickly working her way into her old job.
E) recognize the growth potential in the industrial sector and that she should go back to the factory with the knowledge that she has a long-term future there.
