When my boss asked me to lie
Originally appeared online in the teen series: Your Healings - November 3, 2020

I work in a warehouse that receives and stores expensive items valued well into the thousands of dollars, so we have a responsibility to be careful as we’re handling these goods.
Recently, a new employee—who was still learning the ropes—was opening one of the most expensive types of items we receive and accidentally cut too far into the packaging, causing severe damage.
