Ethics Are Not For Sale

In my business technology class we are currently watching a series of videos that are supposed to teach us proper ethics in the workplace. The videos, however, have their fair share of bad 80's theme music, and their unneccesary share of bad acting. The whole show sends a message to us that when we enter the real world, we always need to have our ethics in mind. No matter what circumstances we are placed under, and no matter what career path we take in life, ethics are always involved. The show "Not For Sale" was obviously directed toward the high school crowd of the 80's and early 90's, Needless to say, we are in the year 2009 and even more so, the videos are a little outdated. Admist all the not-so Oscar worthy acting, and the amazing theme song (haha) the show really does have a timeless message; that the contents of our conscience should never be subjected to any sort of influence by an outside party. When I think about it now, the videos give me a good laugh, but I know deep down that my ethics are not "for sale." I am me, and my morals are my own. Let's just hope that in the three years to come, my ethics are not put to the test too many times. My generation is not for sale, and I imagine that one day the rest of the world will come to terms with that..... "We are not for sale!!!".....pahahahaha yeahhhh...right ;)
