  1. I believe people should be able to eat sand because it is the right thing to do.

 

  1. I believe people should be able to eat sand because it is good for one’s health.

 

  1. I believe people should be able to eat sand if they decide they want to, regardless of whether it is someone else’s sand.

  • Develop your own workplace example that fits with each system. Present each workplace scenario in a substantial paragraph of approximately 40 words. Although the table field will expand to accommodate your workplace examples, you may list them at the end of the table; make a note in the table to see the attached examples, however, so your facilitator knows to look for scenarios below the table.
