Question

It is time for you to schedule a dental checkup. The responsible thing to do is to _____.

A. Make the appointment for Friday afternoon so you only miss half a day's work

B. Make the appointment for during lunch time so you work can take a long lunch

C. Make the appointment for first thing in the morning so you can enjoy the entire day off work.


D. Make the appointment either before or after work in such a way that it has little or no effect on your work schedule

Answer 1

Answer: Make the appointment as early as possible in the day so you can return to work when finished.

When you have an appointment that you cannot miss, it is likely that your work is going to be affected. In the case of the dentist appointment, for example, it is unlikely that the appointment can be made for after hours. Therefore, the best option you have is to have the appointment as early as possible during the day. This ensures that you are able to return to work when finished and that your work is disrupted as little as possible.
