Sam: Tell me: Does this place look like a nursing home?

Sally: No. Why?

Sam: Do I look like a male nurse?

Sally: Not at all.

Sam: Then why do my employees act as though this were a nursing home instead of a work place?

Sally: You’re obviously upset. What’s wrong? Tell me.

Sam: You’re right. I’m upset about a lot of things.

Sally: Can you tell me what the problems are?

Sam: First of all I’m upset because so many of the staff have been showing up late for work.

Sally: It’s true. A lot of people have been coming in late. They probably think you don’t mind. You know there’s a pretty relaxed atmosphere here.

Sam: Maybe it’s because I hang out with a lot of them outside the office.

Sally: They must see you more as a buddy than a boss. It’s because you’re so friendly.

Sam: You’re right. They don’t view me as an authority figure anymore. I’m afraid they don’t respect me as a boss

Sally: So what are you going to do about it?

Sam: I’m going to change. No more Mr. Nice Guy. I’m going to start cracking the whip.

Sally: When do you want this change to take place?

Sam: Starting today, I’m going to lay down the law. From now on, everyone in the company must follow regulations to the latter.

Sally: I’ll post a notice as soon as possible. What should it say?

Sam: No more punching in late. No more clocking out early. No more calling in sick without agoof reason or without a doctor’s note.

Sally: Anything else?

Sam: No more personal phone calls or e-mails on company time!

Sally: All right, I’ll get right on it!
