It is considered fraud to use company property for personal gain that doesn't help the business
succeed. Jack has been taking advantage of the company's time and software. He is also trying
to get his own clients at the company's expense. Carla was also using A&A's tools and
equipment for the benefit of her church. If there is proof that these employees did something
wrong, A&A could take legal action against them. Carla's boss, Jack, uses the situation to make
himself look better. He has worked for A&A for a long time, so he thinks that even if he does
something wrong, his bosses will still like him. So, Carla was left with the impression that her
choices for having an honest job would hurt her career.

2. To protect my career from A&A, I could just keep this information to myself and subject myself
to a protracted period of moral and ethical reflection. It may appear to be a type of dishonesty
because I am protecting an unethical act, but the likelihood of losing my work is remote.
However, I also have the option of turning him in, albeit with the risk of losing my work because
Jack will inevitably drag me along, revealing my own unethical behavior. Despite this, I believe I
have a greater chance of saving my career than Jack. Probably the best course of action for me
would be to clear my conscience and inform my superiors about Jack. In addition, I would have
told them about my employee theft rather than Jack's.

3. In order to continue abusing the company's resources for my own gain, either I keep my power
over Carla or I make a deal with her that allows us to forget about the prior thefts and never
repeat them, or I turn myself in and come clean before things become worse. Unless they were
caught by other employees, the risk of losing both jobs were low enough that the second
alternative was the best option. However, I'd just own up to them and let management know
about them. However, I won't be dragging Carla along with me if they decide on my future with
them. So, I'll tell her to abide by the company's code of ethics and not to compound my errors
any more.

4. First, you should examine the ethical standards of the organization and compare those
standards to the moral beliefs that you hold. Make the selection that will have the least negative
impact on your life, mental well-being, and professional prospects by picking the path that is
consistent with the values held by both you and the organization. Second, you should make a
decision for yourself first before making a decision for the other person, but you should still
consider them. For example, Jack could turn himself in without allowing Carla to leave the
company as well in order to cover up a small transgression. Thirdly, the choice will never be
made by your coworker; rather, it will be made by the supervisors and management of the
company. For example, Jack could not just assume that Carla would be dismissed if she went
against him and acted against his wishes. In conclusion, you should always put your health first.
