We often hear the word “ethics” bandied about when there is a disagreement among agents.
Sadly, too often the term ethics is applied incorrectly to the situation in an misguided effort to weigh opinion in favor of the speaker.
Professional Ethics are NOT subjective. They are clearly defined in writing and AGREED to by voluntary participation OR they are mandated by law, rule or regulation.
Personal ethics ARE subjective. One can impose upon themselves any standard they wish.
One does NOT, however, have the right to impose their personal standards on anyone else.
It may be a tough pill to swallow, but it is what it is.
