You chose:

  1. You approach the Sales Manager and say that you have been pressured by the salesmen to pad your expense account, and this made you very uncomfortable. You say that have already reported the padding to top management and he had better take action now. To back up your position, you admit that you are the granddaughter of the owners.
This is not the best outcome.

You have gone over the head of the Sales Manager and confronted him with your hidden identity. He will consider it unethical on your part that you did not reveal this earlier. He is very unlikely to be cooperative and will likely register a strong objection with your grandparents. Regarding the padding, he will claim that it is a relatively harmless practice that keeps the sales force motivated.
