During a meeting, her boss stated, “Hey, P, why are you wearing that shirt? They are in the worst team in the conference! If you want to keep working here, you may need to buy a new shirt with your next paycheck.” Patricia is very upset but since it was her boss she decides to not wear the shirt anymore.
Scenario 2: Non-verbal Communication
