Scenario: End of a Shift
Christy gets the medication back up to the third floor. She takes over the rigged ventilator and Carmela goes to check on the other patients and give them their medication. Exhausted, Christy struggles to stay awake and keep pumping the ventilator. Sleep keeps trying to claim her and it takes more and more effort to keep moving.
A whir and snap is followed by the lights coming up back on. The ventilator starts to purr on its own. Christy stares at it, unsure how to undo Carmela’s fix or if it’s safe to stop pumping.
“It’s fine,” Carmela says from the doorway. “You can stop now.”
Christy stops and looks around.
“Everything’s good. You can take a break,” Carmela says. “We both can. How do you feel about staying on? I doubt either of our relief will show.”
Christy looks at the clock, and sure enough, her shift is over.
“I’ll stay,” Christy says. “Someone needs to be here.”
This week we learn about sleep and consciousness. As you read the textbook, think about Christy’s story. Why does physical exertion make people sleepy? Think about your own sleep and wake cycleshow does the brain affect your sleep?

Directions
The paper must include the following:

Using the questions as a guideline, identify the
organizational challenges the case incident presents. You are encouraged to add
questions of your own.

Do research on the organizational challenges you
identified.

Integrate and reference these research findings
by discussing how you see this research as applicable to the case incident.

Present an in-depth organizational analysis on how you
believe the research you found might resolve the challenges you identified in
the case incident.
For example: Using the Case Incident on The Encore Career,
you would be using the questions posted below the case as a guideline of what
to research. In this situation, you would be doing research related to age,
discrimination, stereotypes, retirement, culture and diversity, physical and
mental health issues and other factors relevant to older working adults. Then,
you would discuss your research findings applicable to The Encore Career case
incident.

Case
Incident: Encore Career
Daniel Sweere, HR Director for engineering firm Stanley
Consultants, is one of the growing number of management professionals actively
recruiting older workers. Sweere says older workers, typically, hit the ground
running much quicker and they fit into the organization well. They bring to the
job a higher level of skill level and have the right years of experience,
remember an industry, and know their aging customer base.
Tell that to the older co-worker who is unemployed, older
workers have long been sought by government contractors, financial firms, and
consulting firms, according to Cornelia Gamlen, president of consulting firm,
Gamlen Group Ltd, and she actively recruits them. However, The U.S. Department
of Labor Statistics reports that the average job search for an unemployed worker
age 55, is 56 weeks versus 38 weeks for the rest of the unemployed population.
Enter the Encore career, also unknown as unretirement.
Increasingly, older workers, who were not finding fulfilling positions are seeing
the opt-out of traditional roles after long careers in the work place, an
increasing number are embracing flexible, work from home positions, such as
customer service positions. For instance, Olga Howard, 71, signed an
independent contractor for 25-30 hours per week with Arise Virtual Solutions.
Handling questions for financial software company after her long-term career
ended. Others are starting a new business. Chris Farrell, author of
unretirement, said, Older people are starting businesses than any other group.
Others funnel into non-profit organizations, where the pay may not equal, the
individuals previous earning power, but the mission is strong. They need the
money and the meaning, said Encore.org, CEO Marc Freedman, still other are
adding additional education, such as Japans silver entrepreneurs, who have
benefited from the countrys tax credits for training older workers. Individuals
who embark on a second-act career often report they are very fulfilled.
However, the loss of workers from their long-standing careers may be
undesirable. In this knowledge economy, the retention of older workers gives
employers a competitive edge by allowing them to continue to tap a generation
of knowledge and skill, said Mark Schmidt, executive director of the Society
for Human Resource Management (SHRM) Foundation. New thinking by HR
professionals and employers will be required to recruit and retain them.
Otherwise, organizations greatest asset will walk out the door.
Questions to consider for Research
2-18. What changes in
employment relationships are likely to occur as the population ages?
2-19. Do you think increasing age diversity will create new
challenges for managers? What types of challenges do you expect will be most
profound?
2-20. How can organizations cope with differences related to
age discrimination in the workplace? How can older employees help?

Scenario
The Friendly Dawg is a retail pet supply store owned by Dave Dawgs. Dave has worked in the store since high school and took over running the store after his father died two years ago. Originally the store sold only pet food and supplies, such as animal food, bird cages, water bowls, pet beds, and so forth. Upon taking ownership, Dave added fish tanks with fish for sale. Recently he built a kennel and cages in a former storage area in the rear of the store in order to sell live animals, such as snakes, birds, dogs, and cats. Landlord Lou came by during renovations and asked what was going on. One of Daves employees told Lou that The Friendly Dawg was expanding its inventory and needed the space. Landlord Lou told the employee, Very exciting! Good luck!
A few weeks later, landlord Lou began receiving complaints from the neighboring tenant, the Sunshine Yoga studio, that the noise from the dogs and parrots was very disruptive.
The signed lease between Dave Dawgs deceased father and Lou describes the business as a pet supply store only and does not mention selling live animals. The lease specifies a rent in the amount of $500 a month. Sunshine Yoga does not have a written lease. The owner of Sunshine Yoga, Jasmine, met Lou one night in a bar two years ago where he verbally offered to rent her the space for $300 a month. Jasmine claims that landlord Lou told her that night that she could rent from him forever and that he would never evict her.
Lou called Dave, asking him to quiet the animals. Dave said he would try, but the complaints from Jasmine continued. Dave also demanded that Lou improve the air-conditioning system, claiming it was too hot in the rear of the store for his animals and it was causing them to become agitated. Landlord Lou refused, claiming that air-conditioning was not meant to cool that area and it was not his job as landlord to take care of live animals.
Dave stopped paying his rent, claiming that he was not obligated to do so because Lou was breaching his obligation under the lease to maintain the property in good repair. The next day, a dangerous snake escaped through the air vents and slithered into the neighboring yoga studio, frightening Jasmine, the owner, such that she had a heart attack.
After recovering, Jasmine stopped paying her rent, claiming that the premises were unsafe due to the presence of wild animals. She also claimed that she has been very depressed and anxious as a result of the ongoing situation. And she contends that she has lost clients because of the noise coming from The Friendly Dawg.
The Friendly Dawg has been a good tenant, enjoys a strong customer base, and pays more in rent than Sunshine Yoga. Sunshine Yoga has always been late with rent, and Jasmine constantly bothers Lou over minor issues.
