Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: C) From time to time, you will be involved in situations in which you just want to tell the other person off. Outrageous things may happen, and people will try your patience, but no matter what you must never give in to temptation and call a person names or speak abusively. That opens both you and your company up to being accused of defamation.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A
Explanation: A) When you send bad news about transactions, you have three goals: modify the customer's expectations, explain how you plan to fix the problem, and repair whatever damage has been done to the business relationship.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
