Workday 01 · The Form He Can't Read
Monday · 9:14 AM
A man in his fifties needs to fill out an enrollment form. He is not going to tell you why he keeps putting it down.
Workday 02 · Enrollment Week
Thursday · 8:05 AM
The queue reaches the bulletin board before the doors have been open ten minutes. The printer's jammed and the system logs you out every twenty minutes on the dot.
Workday 03 · Something Else Entirely
Tuesday · 2:10 PM
A student who's been a familiar face all two weeks tells you something you're not trained or qualified to handle. You have to decide what happens with it next.
Practice steps
Choose a step that fits your situation. Mark a step when you have tried it in a setting that fits your life — at work, in a class, while volunteering, caregiving, in your community or in a practice conversation. Nobody is grading this.
