If your employer asks to see your notarial journal for business purposes, you should:

  1. Refuse to show them

  2. Let him see only items pertaining to his business

  3. Show the entire journal

  4. Report him to the authorities

The correct answer is: Let him see only items pertaining to his business

The reason why options A and C are incorrect is because refusing to show the journal may raise suspicion and showing the entire journal may reveal personal information of other clients. Option D is incorrect because it is not necessary to report the employer to the authorities unless there is evidence of illegal activity. Option B is the most appropriate response as it allows the employer to see relevant information, while still protecting the privacy of other clients.
