Don’t talk ethics, be ethical
Usually ethics are ridiculed as what a company hangs on the wall and forgets about almost immediately. Talking is cheap, right? Let’s demonstrate with our motions what our ethical standards really are. After you watch the video, please leave a comment with a time you saw this kind of situation play out.
