You're an employee, and you want to know what time you'll be working on Black Friday. Where can you find the time?

Correct! Wrong!

Explanation:
According to the above document, the Black Friday schedule is posted online and in the workroom under the normal weekly schedule. The notice makes it clear that the schedule on Black Friday will be very different from a normal schedule. Asking a manager will probably get you the answer, but you shouldn't have to ask a manager a question that's already answered in a staff-wide letter.

"THE COUPON POLICY AT BLOUSE HOUSE

Customers can show paper coupons or digital ones to receive discounts on their purchases. Digital coupons can be displayed on smartphones, tablets, or other portable devices that have internet connectivity. If a customer mentions that they received one of our coupons in the mail but forgot it at home or that they can't find it, we will only honor the discount if they are in possession of the coupon. Per purchase, only one coupon may be used. Use the coupon that saves the customer the most money when they provide two or more. You may still give the consumer the discount if the coupon has fewer than one (1) week left on it. Any coupon that has been expired for more than a week won't be honored. Put a paper coupon in the recycling bin on the floor after it has been scanned and the discount applied."

You are part of the front-of-house sales team, and on Wednesday, November 27, you are closing the store. What do you need to make sure you do before you leave?

Correct! Wrong!

Explanation:
The notice makes it clear that the store will be closed on Thursday, so the managers need the closing sales staff to re-price the sale items on Wednesday so they can be sold for less on Friday.

"More than fifty different accounts, each with its own sales representative, company name, corporate address, and delivery address, provide service to Goldberg's Auto Parts. Your job at Goldberg's as a shipping and receiving clerk entails returning damaged goods to the vendor.

Your written authorization request to the business is the first step in the standard process for returning an item. Never send a request to the shipping address; always use the business address. Write a business letter to the manufacturer providing the item's stock number, cost, and invoice number, the date it was received, and the reason for its return, unless the corporate file folder already has a form for this procedure. An authorization number from the salesperson, a label you should put on the exterior of the box to identify it as a legitimate return, and a deadline for the manufacturer to accept the returned item are all included in the manufacturer's response. The manufacturer will reject your returned package if the provided sticker is not attached, and you will need to get a new letter, authorization, sticker, and closing date. Never send a returned box to the business's corporate address; rather, send it to the shipping address."

What should you do if you lose an authorization sticker in accordance with the policy depicted?

Correct! Wrong!

Explanation:
The passage states, "The manufacturer will reject your returned package if the provided sticker is not attached, and you will need to get a new letter, authorization, sticker, and closing date." Therefore, if you lose the original authorization sticker, you will have to repeat the standard procedure to get a new letter, etc.

"PROCEDURE FOR LOADING A NEW CLIENT

For a recent client, IOCP Industries, we will need to send 10 pallets every Wednesday. As you may be aware, our client has extremely strict shipping requirements, and this is a larger weekly purchase than we are accustomed to. To ensure that this client remains satisfied and keeps doing business with us, please read and adhere to the guidelines below.

- Fill first these Pallets 1 and 2 with soft, breakable, and delicate objects. Fill the smaller secondary truck with these pallets and just these pallets since these things are being transported to a different location. So that the secondary truck can start its delivery route as quickly as possible, load these pallets first.
- Pallets 3, 4, 5, and 6 are set aside for materials made of metal. To make the most of your available area, be sure to arrange them according to size. The heavier primary truck should be used to load these pallets first because they are the heaviest and could damage any shipments that are placed beneath them.
- Plastic items should be placed on Pallets 7, 8, and 9. To avoid bending or breaking any of the materials, use care when putting them on the pallets. Although they are strong, they can still shatter and bend. Additionally, these pallets had to be loaded onto the main truck.
- Water jugs will be placed on the 10th pallet. Use the transparent packing tape to ensure the pallet stays intact during delivery, and alternate each row of jugs between upright and upside down to maximize space. Additionally, these pallets must be loaded onto the main truck.

Each Wednesday, delivery trucks must reach their destinations by 4 o'clock. The distance traveled by the first truck and the secondary truck takes roughly 2 and 3 hours, respectively. We should make sure both vehicles are loaded and prepared to leave before noon in order to be safe. This cargo is our first priority, so if we happen to have a lot of deliveries to do on a given Wednesday, handle it first thing in the morning."

Explanation:

"The Pediatrician's Center for Northern Virginia

Notice to Employees:
For the flu season, the way the waiting room is set up has been changed. In the middle of the room, there is a room divider that is orange on one side and purple on the other. When a patient checks in, they must first be asked why they are there. People with flu-like symptoms who go to the doctor will be told to sit on the orange side of the divider. Parents or guardians who bring a child with flu-like symptoms to an appointment must also sit on the orange side. Patients who come to the doctor's office for anything else will sit on the purple side of the room.

When a seat on the orange side of the room is no longer needed, a member of staff must wipe it down. The chairs on the purple side of the room will only need to be cleaned at the beginning and end of the day, as is standard all year.

To stop viruses from spreading when kids touch toys and crayons, the child entertainment centers have also been taken away. If any patients or guardians complain about the change, explain that the TVs were taken down for everyone's health and safety and point them to one of the TVs that are mounted in the corners of the room as an alternative way to pass the time. Customers or staff can change the channel to help a patient, as long as the new channel is appropriate for families."
