Ethics is a very interesting subject area because we respond to situations based on our own personal value system. What might be ethical in some situations to me, may not be for you. Discuss what you would do in each of the following situations and why. Is it ethical behavior?

o You are not really sick, but you want to take the day off. What do you say when you call your supervisor?

o You are on a job interview for a job you really want, and the interviewer mentions that the candidate she hires will need to be fluent in Excel. Although you are familiar with Excel, you are not especially good at it and dont really know all the features. What would you say when she asks you about your skill level with Excel?

o You went on a business trip for the company you work for and are preparing your expense report. You are able to include tips, mileage, and other categories without a receipt. Since youve been working a lot of overtime without pay, you consider adding in an additional $25 to cover your extra hours; no one will notice. What do you do as you are completing the expense report?

o Your boss takes the afternoon off but asks you to tell everyone at the staff meeting that he is in a meeting with a client. When you are in a staff meeting, a manager asks you why your boss isnt there. What would you say?
