  • This exercise is about raising our awareness of unacceptable workplace behaviour.

  • Now, we're going to get Buck, yes, and Naomi to play colleagues.

  • I want you to ding your bell when you hear anything you might deem inappropriate, OK?

  • Let's go for one.

  • And...action.

  • BELL RINGS

  • What? She didn't knock. There's no door. Let's go again.

  • KNOCK AT DOOR

  • Oh, hi, Naomi. How are you going?

  • Good, Buck. You? I'm good.

  • It's a good start.

  • So, anyway, that's a nice shirt.

  • BELL RINGS

  • What?

  • Characterising someone on the basis of appearance.

  • I wasn't characterising. Unwelcome advance.

  • I was making small talk. Stay in it, Naomi.

  • Um, Buck, I need that report.

  • BELL RINGS

  • She's placing a demand rather than inviting collaboration.

  • Well done. I need that report, please.

  • BELL RINGS

  • Passive aggressive. No rush.

  • BELL RINGS

  • Sarcasm.

  • You can't ding me.

  • BELL RINGS

  • Uninvited physical contact.

  • BELL RINGS

  • Buck's been excluded from a group task.

  • Oh, for fuck's sake.

  • Natalie, it is so important that the workplace is a welcoming place.

  • At the end of the day, what are we trying to do here?

  • Cost a freight rail bypass?

  • Create a safe environment.

  • You ready to give it another try?

  • Yep.

  • Come on, Naomi.

  • So, Buck, I greatly appreciate your ongoing contributions and without in any way wishing to impose unrealistic or unreasonable deadlines, would it be possible for you to complete it by five?

  • I'm a little busy.

  • And I totally understand and appreciate your hard work.

  • I'm really busy.

  • But if we don't get this finished by today, the project might...

  • BELL RINGS

  • Oh, what now?

  • I think someone's at reception.

  • I've got a hamper for Tony from Liz and the crew at Baseline Motors.
