7.1 Taking Advantage of the Advantages: Gifts, Bribes, and Kickbacks
Is it ethical to accept bribes/gifts from a potential future employer?
Why or why not?
Gift vs Bribe vs Kickback
" Bribes are gifts everything from straight cash to entertainment given to media buyers with the direct purpose of corrupting their professional judgment by appealing to their personal welfare "
A gift is something given with no strings attached or nothing expected back in return.
Kickbacks resemble bribes except that instead of the gift or entertainment being given over first and then the ad space getting purchased, the ad space is purchased and then a portion of that revenue is sent back to the media buyer as cash or Springsteen tickets or whatever.

There’s unmistakable and convincing evidence of misconduct.
7.3 Company Loyalty

Three Degrees of Loyalty
Obedience loyalty, which is an extreme case, works from the idea that the organization is worthy and the employee is comparatively worthless or only worthwhile to the extent he or she serves the organization.
Balanced loyalty is a situation where both the employee and the organization recognize in each other an independent value.
Free agency is the extreme on the bottom end: the absence of loyalty.

Office Romance
Status on the job makes a difference in quotidian working life, but it’s hard to quantify; it’s not like a salary, which is an objective number and can be directly compared with others on a pay scale.
Personal Slackers adopt the attitude for their own private reasons. The Context Slacker is dedicated to not working because the incentive system of the labor contract—or some other external factor—encourages slacking off.
