You promised a customer you would call back today at noon. It is now 11:30 a.m., and your supervisor just scheduled a 30-minute meeting to start at noon. The only people who are excused from the meeting are the secretaries. You are not a secretary; therefore, you must attend this meeting. Given this information you decide to:__________.
A) Ask your supervisor if you can be late for the meeting.
B) Find the customer after the meeting and apologize.
C) Contact the customer right away and hope that she can be found.
D) Arrange to have the customer call you back at a better time.
E) I thought the last one but my hubby says that would be rude, I have no idea.

Asking my supervisor if I can be late for the meeting would give me an opportunity to meet with the customer as earlier advised to protect my integrity. I will make sure to keep the meeting with the customer brief so I can go back to join the meeting with my supervisor as soon as possible
