THE CAUSE AFFECTS MY MY PART
Mrs. Jones
I neglected my wife.
I was unfaithful.
I was busy looking after my needs rather than doing my job.
I was inconsiderate to her.I am afraid that might happen to me.I did things I don’t want others to know about.I was unreliable.
I was drinking on the job and stealing.
I don’t pay any attention to her.I put my job in jeopardy by drinking and stealing.
