Answer to Question 1

Answer: The informal communication network or grapevine tends to be most active when employees believe the formal network is not providing the information they want. For example, if employees are worried about possible layoffs but managers do not address the topic, the grapevine would probably become more active.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: Today's employers expect you to be competent at a wide range of communication tasks. One of those tasks is communicating in a civilized manner that reflects contemporary expectations of business etiquette, even when dealing with indifferent or hostile audiences.
