Your boss has been pressuring you because you are weeks late turning in a termination report. However, you cannot begin your section of the report until your colleague, Matt Churetta, finishes his section. Right now, he is the problem. Here is a series of email exchanges between you and Matt:

It is now September, and over a month has passed from the termination report’s original due date. While you are sympathetic to Matt’s situation, the boss is demanding the finished report.
As your instructor directs,

a. Write an email to Matt telling him you have to have his portion of the report as soon as possible. You are concerned for your job security, as well as his, if this report is not finalized soon.

b. Write an email to your boss explaining the situation.

c. Write an email to your instructor that focuses on the ethical choices you had to make while constructing the two messages.

Matt's reply: 7/25/2021 Matt, The boss wants the termination report now. Send over your section as soon as you finish. Thanks, 7/30/2021 My apologies about the report. On another note, I'm waiting to see my oncology surgeon to see what the course of treatment will be for the esophageal cancer. I will keep you posted on the process. Please let me know if there is anything else coming up. Thanks,
