You have worked as a bank teller for several months when one of the other tellers who has become a good friend tells you that her daughter is extremely ill and that she must have an operation to survive. She also tells you that she has no insurance and the operation will cost $10,000. Sometime later you ask her about her daughter and she tells you she is just fine now. She then confides in you that she took $10,000.00 from a dormant account at the bank to pay for the operation. She assures you that she has already started paying it back and will continue to do so until it is all returned. What do you do?  Your decision:

You are the owner of a high-class restaurant, where dinner costs upwards of $70 per plate. You want your patrons to maintain “appropriate attire.”   Can you insist on this? How do you define “appropriate” for men and / or women? Your decision:
