Respond to the information below about bullying bosses with about a one paragraph essay (100 word minimum) explaining your thoughts and experiences with this issue.

According to a workplace violence report issued by the FBI's Critical Incident Response Group, bullying, if left unchecked, may result in more serious violent behavior.

The Workplace Bullying Institute (WBI) notes that research findings "have confirmed that targets appear to be the veteran and most skilled person in the workgroup . . . Insecure bosses and coworkers can't stand to share credit for the recognition of talent. Bully bosses steal credit from skilled targets."

The WBI also says that "The most easily exploited targets are people with personalities founded on a prosocial orientation—a desire to help, heal, teach, develop, nurture others."

1. Forum Discussion: Select ONE of the following prompts and write a 200-250 word essay.

A. Graphic Design
Graphic Design is an ever-growing occupation. All businesses use graphic designers, whether "in-house" or subcontractors from firms specializing in the industry. Business cards, logos, letterheads, etc. are used on a daily basis to communicate with others and advertise business. Look at some of the products around you--soap, beverages, fast food items, clothing. Each has a specific logo that you recognize. Pepsi has a circular object that vaguely resembles a yin/yang symbol. White Castle burgers are small and square with a castle as their logo.

Observe the items you consume each day. When you purchase the items how do you identify them in a store? What if the label had been changed, would you still recognize it?

Over time, most logos have changed; however, the changes have been so gradual you probably didn't notice. Select one product and write a 200-250 word essay about the history of its logo. How has it changed throughout time? Has the packaging also changed? How did the changes meet the needs of consumers? Did the newer designs appeal to consumers? Be sure to include images of the logo as it changed, and identify your sources.
