Too Close For Comfort      In this case study, the ethical dilemma is individual versus community. Debra Borchert is bothered by Jerry who is a developmentally delayed. He is following her and bumping into her and making her feel uncomfortable. Debras hard-fought decision is whether or non to tell the omnibus Jerry is bothering her, risking getting him fired, and too risking the set up not hiring anymore mentally challenged kids. Jerry also might not get hired anywhere else the job at the grocery store was a good one for him. Debras brothers were very equal to Jerry, and she wished they could be able to have jobs just like Jerry so that is another creator why she didnt want to complain. On the other hand it would be a good idea to tell the manager some matter because she feels uncomfortable, and she should think intimately herself earlier being concerned with what is going to happen to Jerry.      An example in the case study where De bra feels like she wants to tell the manager that she is bothered by Jerry is when he is following her, stepping on her foot in line, and bumping in to her. She knows he is challenged and probably doesnt mean any harm, but she feels she has no survival of the fittest but to say something.     Another example of when she feels like she should tell the manager is later on the case study when she feels like Jerry forgot about her tho he comes over from a different register just to overhaul her with her bags. To keep away from him she used the cart as a parry so she had something between her and him.      On the other hand, as an example of why she thought she shouldnt complain is because as I said before in the thesis statement. She doesnt want to make the mistake of downfall other developmentally challenged kids chances of getting jobs. She feels that she should probably just put up with it and go on with her life. Especially because her br other has a very similar disease.      In conclusion to my thoughts on this case study, I think that Debra choosing not to say anything was a good idea. I think she did the right thing by just trying to avoid Jerry because getting him in pettifoggery would only make it worse for him and her.
