4. Scenario 1: Esther recently got a job in the storeroom of a local department store. On her first day, one of the delivery men is very rude to her, calling her slow and questioning her ability to lift heavy boxes. Since then, the deliveryman has attached suggestive or insulting cartoons and jokes about women on the packages he leaves. What should Esther do? A.Nothing. She’s new and shouldn’t make waves. The deliveryman doesn’t work for the store, so management can’t do anything about it. B.Tell the deliveryman that his behavior is offensive and he should stop. C.Tell her supervisor or a manager responsible for handling harassment and discrimination complaints about his conduct. D.Retaliate by calling the deliveryman’s company and complaining to them.

5. Scenario 1: Best answers: B and C A is incorrect because employers can be held responsible for harassment, even when the harasser is not an employee. D is incorrect because it would be better handled by her employer and if he finds out, he might escalate the harassment.
