Decision making, defined as the thought process of selecting a logical choice from the available options. I am currently a Store Manager in Training for O 'Reilly Auto Parts.

You sell parts and serve customers. The AM has a good personality and is normally in a great mood, until he makes a mistake and the SM jumps on him about it.

  • Varelius Argument 'Irelius Autonomy'

    Varelius argues that a patient’s autonomy that is refusing treatment should not be respected and treated anyways. To do this, he uses the subjective and objective theories of wellbeing to weigh the possible options. Accepting the subjective theory of wellbeing would take in account the patients favors and disfavors, thus a person’s good is based on her own decisions. The patient is entitled to be the one that weighs out the options of being treated or not being treated. Therefore, accepting prudential subjectivism would then commit you to respecting the patient’s decision not to be treated.
