  RE: BNET Readers Share Their Ethical Lapses

  A supervisor puts an excellent employee in for an annual performance award. This employee has been recognized this year as "Woman of the Year" and no write-ups for over 10 years (environ. field) at her "company". It's approved by her supervisor and his supervisor but when it gets to the next level, the Deputy Commander, who doesn't care for this woman on a personal level, he disapproves it. When questioned about his disapproval, he states that he has noticed some behavior that he feels is not in line with a performance award (although award rules specifically state behavior not affecting work performance does not apply).
  
  Understandable and Forgivable?
  On the Line?
  Unforgivable?

  Deputy Commander

  This is an unforgivable offense. The personal feelings get covered up by bureaucratic doubletalk and we as the members of the team are supposed to look the other way? Rank has its privileges. Being unethical is not one of them.

  Had a good old boy come on ahead of me; CEO gave him his SVP based on a BS bus. plan he wrote to get more capital - so as CFO sold the co. at twice that, netting something nice from my stocks; a prob. with patent infringement cost the CEO his bucks. Vengeance is best served cold; ethics be damned.
