Answer to Question 1

Stressful daily events at work, such as a nasty e-mail, an impending deadline, the loss of a big sale, or a reprimand from the boss, negatively affect moods. The effects of stress also build over time. Mounting levels of stress can worsen our moods, and we experience more negative emotions.

Answer to Question 2

D
Explanation: D) Since Janice and Shane are looking to work for fewer than the normal work hours required, the best option for them would be to participate in job sharing, which allows two or more individuals to split a traditional 40-hour-a-week job. The other structure options are still 40-hour-a-week commitments.
