SOURCE 1: From a meeting of upper managers at a company: Unfortunately, we're going to have to fire an employee. I think the
choice is pretty clear. The average writer on our team writes 500 words
an hour, but Jean only writes 200 words an hour. We need to send a
message that this kind of laziness won't be tolerated. Furthermore, she
insists on working 40 hours a week, which forces us to give her
benefits.
SOURCE 2: From an evaluation written by Jean's supervisor: Unlike the
average writer in our company who writes 500 words an hour, Jean
writes slowly and methodically. While her output is lower, her attention
to detail saves her supervisors hours of editing later on. She is such a
big help to our department that I would like to keep her on a 40-hour-a-
week schedule so that we can be sure to meet our new productivity
goals
Which claim do the two sources most clearly disagree on?
A. Jean's word count is lower than average for a writer at the
company
B. Jean is an outgoing people person'
C. Jean is less valuable to the company than the average writer
D. Jean receives benefits from the company
