- Step by step answerarrow_forwardA bank loan officer who was taking medication for depression had numerous drinks at a local bar, went to a cemetery, and, with a gun in his hand, threatened to commit suicide. He eventually drove off but was intercepted by the police and committed to a psychiatric facility for four days. His physician certified that he would be able to resume all of his duties in a week, but the bank balked at reinstating him. Officials at the bank expressed their shock that he was released from the hospital so quickly after threatening to kill himself. He was told that he could not be immediately reinstated because of “the impact of your action in the community and on the ability to perform your job.” He was placed on a leave of absence and then terminated.

The obvious answer is to have multiple channels available–order from the Web, make returns at the store, check on delivery by phone - and have all of those contact points able to pick up where they last left off. Is there any advantage to the customer using only one channel? Why does research show that customers who use more than one channel are more likely to be more valuable than those who use only one? Please cite in text references and add weblinksarrow_forwardThe percentage of the workplace that is a part of a union has been decreasing for decades (especially in the private sector). Many laws have been passed that give employees rights that unions cared deeply about, e.g., FMLA, OSH Act, FSLA, etc. Does that mean that unions are no longer needed? However, there is also evidence that an ever-increasing part of the pie is going to an ever smaller group of individuals. And unionized employees tend to make more and have stronger protections than non-union employees. Are unions necessary?arrow_forward

Although statistical analysis might reveal that two observable events tend to happen at similar times, it does not necessarily mean that one event “causes” the other.
