Why Can’t He See?

Jane D. Parent

Chapter 1.6 in Stories to Tell Your Students, 2011, pp 13-15 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Nora and the others continue to be confused about the actions of their manager. They are part of a team of sales associates that work at a local pharmacy. Nora is a mother of three who works part time to help pay for her children’s college expenses. Although she is college educated with a degree in accounting, she chose this job because of the flexible hours and the fact that she can leave her work behind when she’s done with her work day. The pharmacy is close to home, the work is relatively easy, and she earns a decent hourly wage. Lately, however, Nora finds herself thinking about work more than she cares to. She and her coworkers have been very agitated by the actions of their store manager, Don.
