Alicia is going to college and working a full-time job. Her employer generally supports her decision to be in college, but Alicia thinks her boss is asking her to take on more responsibilities than her schedule allows. Alicia decides to arrange a meeting in which she hopes they can both talk frankly about the problem, but she worries that her boss will think she’s being a "complainer." 1. What should Alicia do to prepare for her meeting with her boss?

a. Plan to discuss the ways attending college is helping Alicia be better at her job.
b. Tell other coworkers and HR that she suspects her boss is deliberately giving her more work than she can reasonably handle while also attending school in an effort to get her to withdraw from her coursework.
c. Nothing. Conversations like this are always best when they are spur of the moment and don't seem staged.
d. Draft a resignation letter to give her boss at the start of the meeting in case they can't come to an agreement.


Answer: a. Plan to discuss the ways attending college is helping Alicia be better at her job.
