You might want to take a look at our Crossroads Cafe video series.  The
video series is in 26 half-hours and can be compared to a family drama or TV
sitcom.  What you may find interesting from the workplace point of
view.....the series revolves around the lives of six recurring characters
who work at a small restaurant - a very familiar service industry setting.
Many of the episodes are conducive to workplace-themed lessons such as
punctuality, job interviews, worker protection, diversity in the workplace.

The videos in the series have been correlated to EFF.  The videos and
supporting print materials (for low-beginning thru intermediate-high adult
learners) have all been correlated to the Dept of Labor SCANS competencies
as well.

Let me know if you would like to see some samples.
