Ethical Framework

What does it mean to be honest? What does it mean to be honourable? Ethics is derived from the Greek word ethos. Ethics to me can be be as always doing the right involvement all the time. Everyone has their own moral principles that decide his/her behavior. Everyone is completely various in how they were raised and taught in what was right and wrong. As stated by Santa Clara University, ethics refers to standards of behavior that aver us how human beings ought to act in the many situations in which they find themselves-as friends, p bents, children, citizens, businesspeople, teachers, professionals, and so on (Santa Clara University, 2010).A sight of people will get ethics confused with it being the same as their feelings. In particular, it is on the whole opposite. It is that way because when people generally get angry with something or someone and then they will typically follow that up with doing something bad. There are certain ethics people should follow in their daily lives. Whether you recognize it or not but if you drive every day and you choose to drive the zip up limit, not to commit murder or even not to rob a bank you are following the rules and regulations that were implemented by our government.I know from a personal level about doing the right thing and being ethical when one of my friends was working a bakery. My friend left that job and took the normal and started make her own cookies and went out on the street and sold them cookies to the bakerys current customers and future customers. not to mention this was the bakerys best cookie that was voted on by its customers. Pretty soon the proprietor realized his sales were going down and quickly realized that it was his former employee selling his product without the benefit.He at long last filed a lawsuit against my friend. Now what my friend did was not only fair and right but was to a fault considered unethical. My friend had pay a fee back to her former boss and had to give up th e recipe and not do that again. In my everyday life I choose to be ethical in everything I do. I choose to do the right things when it comes to doing something that I know I shouldnt be doing. One thing that comes to mind of me not being ethical was when I was not of the legal long time to drink alcohol. I know that I would drink every now and then when I was in high school.I thought it was the cool thing to do and hang out with my friends while I did it. past when I came to Brevard it got worse being around a lot of my friends that would peer pressure me. Growing up I had two great parents that taught me to always do the right thing. While doing it I knew it would be ethical to not pick a beer up and drink it seeing how the law stated that you had to be at least twenty one years of age to consume it. My parents spend a penny always told me, Would you still do what youre doing if I was sitting right behind you? But also on the other baseball mitt I do not consider it being uneth ical if I were to do something that didnt rightfully have that much harm, like for example lying to a friend. According to Cornell University, Many acts that would be wide condemned as unethical are not prohibited by law (Legal Information Institute, 1992). When deciding on what would be considered ethical and non-ethical, you would have to use your judgment of how you were raised to determine the certain actions. I know for a fact that when and if I have kids I will definitely raise them the way my grandparents and my parents have raised me.If I can do that then I will know for a fact that I will be proud of my kids and they will be properly raised.
