2.Act dependant
3.Don't go over her head!

I won, all 4 of them in fact. Not too hard once you get the one with the vagrant.

So how do you deal with a vagrant that won't let you pass without killing you, no matter what you say or do?

Okay...I got through the iron and got it returned. But that seems so bogus to me. You have to lie (saying it was like that when you got it) you have to blame the people in the stock room and call other employees vandalizing idiots, call your mother lazy and pretty much do all kinds of stupid stuff.

If you admit that YOU spilled the coffee on it (or rather the cat) you get congratulated for being honest. Obviously that's not the thing they're trying to teach you.

What the hell kind of 'negotiating' are they trying to teach? Lying and cheating to get what you want just because after it's over there's no chance of any consequences?

Once you give the vandal any money, he'll just keep asking for more until you say no, then he kills you. I tried being sympathetic and firm, and got killed every time.

Okay the vandal game is REALLY stupid. The entire time of the game he's insisting he needs 200 dollars, no matter what you say he needs 200 dollars and there's a whole spiel about it. Any time you say anything like you're not going to give him the money or that you think he should do something on his own to get a job besides begging for money, he kills you. But you offer to buy him coffee and a donut and he acts hurt by the suggestion, then when you go ahead and do it, you expect him to get pissed and kill you, but instead he blesses you and kisses you for your kindness.

I think after all the time spent 'negotiating' for 200 dollars, he wouldn't actually be happy that you bought him a donut. Considering you go to the ATM and take out 20 bucks to buy it for him (the only reason [which I can think of] for that being that you don't want him to know you have any money on you), I think he'd kill you for the 20 dollars.

I got rid of the vandal on my first try....asked him a bunch of questions about his plans, then went to the atm and tossed him $40.

Really I can't get the cop one... But ther vandel was no problem got that on the first try.

OMG I got it, but where do they get these?
Are they trying to teach us that lying is the only way we can get things to go our way?
A fricken special agent? please!

Crying your way out of the police officer is the only solution I found. Is it just me or do these games teach some bad lessons?

Notice that the link to 'learn more about negotiation' goes to some sort of training courses in how to negotiate in various situations. Kinda scary that THEY will be showing people how to deal with life situations.
