| C | An employee agrees with their manager's decision in a public team meeting to avoid a confrontation, but privately believes the decision is incorrect and continues to hold their original view. |
| D | A guest at a formal dinner party uses the correct sequence of cutlery, even though they think the etiquette is silly, simply to fit in with the other guests and avoid standing out or being judged. |
