Business Ethic
Essay #1

In 21st century, business ethics are one of most hot topic that are surrounding in business world. Many of employees began to be arrested for violated the company 's policies or laws. Violate the company 's policies or laws are considering as not appropriate conduct and it break the business 's ethics. Business ethics are more of moral value that come from individual whether employee feel it is right thing to do or it’s wrong. No one have the same ethics because everyone came from many different backgrounds. Therefore, some people think it’s right thing to do, while others doesn 't. From my work experience, I had seen several people who are really badly at follow the business ethic that lead them to be in "hot water" or let go from job.
Last summer, I started my new job as student custodian for facilities management services department at Rochester Institute of Technology. In each custodian department, they have two senior custodians who can take over boss 's responsibility if boss is not here. They have more authority by have access to storage, order supplies, in charge of assign new assignment for the day to other employees, ensure everyone clean very well and follow the rules. It is not their just responsibility for the job, but they have their own space to be clean same as other regular custodian. When few weeks has passed, I noticed that several employees started to complaining about one of senior custodian isn 't do his job. Even people that he cleans their offices are complaining that their office’s still dirty. When I was on break, I walked to my car to buy some food from gas station, I saw him sleep in his car. He already in the car before the break started. When we get back to work from break, he always picks up phone and began to chat with his friends at 5am in the morning! When fall quarter began, I became part-time employee. He assigned me to clean all of his spaces that cause other employees to be

    Residential schools were seen by the Canadian government as a way to civilize the native population and keep their children from continuing in their native traditions. In 1895 Rev Fr A.M Carion stated in a report from a residential school in Kamloops, British Columbia that the purpose of the residential school is to civilize the Indian and to make them good, useful and law abiding members of society with strict punishments for any wrong doings. 1 Richard Pratt, who founded the Carlisle Indian Industrial School, one of the first of the reservation schools in the United States, preached “you must kill the Indian in him; to save the man”. These ideals were later adopted by the Canadian government. 2 The goal of residential schools was to assimilate Aboriginals into white society through children since they were much more susceptible to influence. This research paper will focus on the residential school system and will argue that the Canadian government and churches committed genocide amongst the indigenous populations in an attempt to eliminate the native culture. It will focus on the history of residential schools in Canada, their intended targets, the health and quality of life of the Aboriginals attending these schools, the sterilization of Aboriginal women, those who succeeded in the school system, and what has changed since the opening of the schools.…

    Advertising has a natural link to the consumer, it is designs and implemented to cause the consumer to act based on the ideals put forth through the advertisement. This premise presumes that the consumer being targeted has the cognitive and social faculties to analyze and interpret the message being sent by the advertisement. Ethics begin to play a role when the consumer does not have these abilities to implement in their decision making process, children for example are extremely susceptible to advertising because of these very reasons and therefore advertising targeting children can be seen as unethical.…

    The unparallel success of AirAsia had stimulated many LCC to enter the market in its region, some of which are large full-service airlines' subsidiary companies. Knowing that the new-comers would copy its low cost strategy, AirAsia introduced a series of unique services. For example, it was the first airline in Malaysia to allow online check-in. What's more, it offered more choice for those who wanted to pay more for convenience, such as the Xpress boarding service and the Real Five Star service as well as economic choice for those who carried less baggage(Cite the HBS Case), i.e. the introduction of checked baggage handling fees. In addition, Air Asia became a pioneer to launch the "on-time guarantee" feature among other LCCs, which enormously increase its credibility and reputation. Apart from that, AirAsia was also the few of its kind什么意思(第一次实行?) to operate long-haul service, including the flight to Australia Gold Coast and London. Other LCCs who intent to copy the strategy failed as can be seen the case of Jetstar due to the rising oil price. The reason why AirAsia successfully operates the long-haul service might be that it collaborated with many local LCCs to bring down the cost. While being exposed to fierce competition caused by more and more new entrants, AirAsia decided to move from a traditional LCC which simply sells flight tickets to an "integrated service provider" which provides travel related services. In order to keep its low price advantage confronting the surging oil price, AirAsia chose the "dynamic, layered-hedge strategy" to compensate its fuel cost. Its low cost advantage is so competitive that it can reach a break even with only 56% passenger load, which other companies found hard to catch. Consider one of the five forces raised by Porter, AirAsia enjoys an absolute cost advantage owed to the superior productivity of its staff, its fuel efficiency, the low overheads and its wise choice of the distribution channel,…

    1. The text ”When Reality TV Gets Too Real” is written by Jeremy W. Peters in 2007. The text is about whether there should be a limit for how far you could go, when they were making reality TV, to get viewers. Jeremy W. Peters starts telling that, in a recent episode of Intervention, A&E’s documentary series about addiction, Pam an alcoholic, is driving drunk, and no one from the camera crew did anything. Every year they are pushing the boundaries for what you can show in reality TV, even though it sometimes ends up in lawsuits.…
