What do you think about Nereza’s reaction? Nereza, a research assistant, taps lightly on her supervisor’s door before walking into his office—as she has done many times before. Richard is sitting with a male employee. They are looking out the window and laughing. Richard calls Nereza over and makes a joke about Claire, an overweight coworker who is getting out of a car. Nereza says, “I like Claire. She does a good job. Besides, we all have our physical challenges”

(as she looks at Richard’s receding hairline). Nereza shoots Richard a

“you should know better” look and leaves.
