Work Ethics?
Before we talk about work ethics perhaps we should talk first about employer ethics? I mean if you want employees to be loyal to you, shouldn't you be loyal to them? If you want employees to walk your line, then shouldn't you be expected to walk some of the employees' line? What ever happened to treating employees with respect? I mean you want employees to treat the position that you have bestowed upon them with respect, meaning that you do not want them to do anything that would reflect the business in any negative manner, and that you would like for them to be loyal, honest, and forthright, but what about you, employer? Are you being honest, forthright, and respectable when you decide to let employees go just because you can find somebody else who will do a half ass job for you for about 10 percent of the cost? What ever happened to quality, standing behind your product, and assuring your customer that you have the best goods and services to offer them at the lowest possible cost? I guess greed has taken priority over ensuring the work is of the best quality. Loyalty has no merit any longer since employers do not care about the quality of life of their employees. Employers would much rather get more return for their buck than to worry about the quality of life their employees have. It is all about the quickest and biggest bang now, and not about tenure. Did any of you employers learn anything from your elders?
