Question

1. choose the best answer. tamara was talking on her cell phone outside the building during a break. she and her boyfriend were having difficulty, and tamara became quite upset during the conversation. later, when she stepped into the cafeteria for lunch, her coworkers got quiet. she went to the microwave to heat her food and noticed that no one was making eye contact with her. she was embarrassed and did not want to speak to her friends. all she wanted to do was go home. what confidentiality rule was obviously broken? a person should not tell anything that he or she has been asked to keep confidential. a person should use good judgment and not share information that might cause embarrassment. a person sometimes has the right to break a confidence if harm might otherwise occur. a person should assume that everything is confidential unless given permission to share it.

Explanation:

Tamara's coworkers knew about her personal conversation (which made her upset and embarrassed), indicating that someone shared information that caused her embarrassment. Option B aligns with this as it emphasizes not sharing info that might cause embarrassment. Option A is about not sharing what's explicitly asked to be kept confidential (no indication of that here). Option C is about breaking confidence to prevent harm (no harm - just embarrassment). Option D is about assuming confidentiality unless permission (no such context here).

Answer:

B. A person should use good judgment and not share information that might cause embarrassment.
