Question

Mark is a young man who works as a mailroom clerk at an office downtown. He was hired last month as the result of a referral from a friend. Mark really likes the outdoors and bikes to work every day. He shares his office with 3 other co‐ workers, and since he has an expensive bike, he asked if it was okay to keep the bike in the office. His co‐workers agreed to the arrangement. Every day Mark brings his bike in. Sometimes it is really wet and makes the floors dirty, and Mark leaves his bike gear lying around and it started to smell bad. His co‐workers are talking behind his back saying that he smells bad and his hair looks funny after he takes his helmet off. What would be a good solution for this situation?

Answer 1

The solution would be for Mark's co-workers to call for an internal meeting with Mark. In the meeting, they would need to discuss all their issues ranging from mark's bike, to his actions in his work place.

Their is need for the workers to tell Mark that, his wet bike disrupt the work place making it unsafe during work. Also, they should tell him to lokk for another location where he will be parking his bike rather than bringing it inside the office.

Lastly, they should look for a subtle way to inform him about the need to take adequate care of his body and hair through appropriate grooming.
