Sarah and Holly started working at a Human Resources firm as recruiters on the same day and have the same position. Both women have been meeting their placement goals and are both very well liked within the organization. Because Holly lives almost 60 miles away, she sometimes works 9-6 to avoid traffic rather than the 8-5 that Sarah works. Johnson, their supervisor, awarded Sarah the "Employee of the Month" award for her outstanding work. Which influence of perception is at work in this situation?
◦ situation: Since Holly travels the farthest, she is actually more dedicated than Sarah
◦ perceiver: Johnson thinks because Holly arrives at 9 that she must not be working a full day
◦ target: Sarah arrives on time so people think she is doing her job better than Holly
◦ situation: Since the office opens at 8, Sarah is more conscientious than Holly
◦ perceiver: Holly thinks she is entitled to special privilege because she is meeting her goals
