12. As an administrative assistant, you have been training Mrs. W., who is not directly under your supervision. She has not appeared to be particularly competent during the month she has been in her position. You are explaining application procedures to a client when Mrs. W. interrupts to ask you a question. You tell her you are busy with a client and will come to her office when you are through. In a low voice, she begins to call you names and say bad things about the department. There are several clients in the office in addition to the one you are working with. The supervisor doesn't appear to be around. What should you do?

Explanation

In this situation, it is important to address Mrs. W's disruptive behavior while also ensuring that the client's needs are met.

Explanation

If you know that the person your boss gave to the client is no longer the one to contact for the information, the best course of action is to give the individual the correct name and explain that your boss was not aware of the change. This ensures that the client receives the correct information and avoids any confusion or delays.
