Joe the Manager (Scenario)
As a production supervisor, Joe decides on Friday afternoon how many units of output his employees should produce next week, as well as which products will be produced on which days in the department.

On Monday, he hands out work assignment sheets to inform the employees about which machines each will operate for the week.

He encourages his subordinates by telling them that he is confident they will achieve the production targets because they are such hard-working and skilled employees.
