WFH jobs require a designated office, WiFi in a home or apt.

Let's say you were a new employee in a company that offered medical benefits. And you developed a health issue that required corrective surgery. Your doctor said it was necessary. But you just started and you moved 900 miles for that job. Employer tells you you have no time off so you allow them to terminate you due to a perceived medical liability and not for insubordination.

Do you just smile and say, "thank you, I'm here in this new town, I now have no job and I am not eligible for unemployment. Okie Dokie, I'll just pray to an imaginary sky daddy hoping I'll easily find a comparable salaried job with benefits and ignore my medical procedure in the interim and cover the rent on the apt I just signed a 12 mos lease for.

Shit happens. Life happens.

And what if you worked for an employer like Wells Fargo that was scamming customers and required you to reach your numbers by using existing social security numbers without their permission to open up CDs, second savings accounts or even a credit card, just to reach your quota.

What I'm writing about is business ethics. I am going to assume since the fault lies with me that I should ignore my health, not use employer benefits when I need them and scam clients to make quota to stay employed.

I wonder what happened to the Wells Fargo whistleblowers, or the ones who reported Elizabeth Holmes with Theranos.

What happened to valuing integrity?
