Answer to Question 1

The dissatisfied nurse calls in sick frequently because he or she does not like being at work, often files grievances, and is far more likely to quit the job.

Answer to Question 2

A Theory X manager believes that people are lazy, dislike responsibility, prefer to be directed, resist change, and want to be kept safe. This manager also believes in punishment because he or she thinks this is the only way workers will perform.
