I understand that it is too difficult for organizations to being hundred percent ethical. They might cheat consumers on the results, the ingredients, the weight and so on. They might also be unethical to employees, do not keep their promises to employees and so on.
Actually, we always have a choice and the choice is always in our hand. In dramas and movies, there are bad characters who doing something bad and claim that they have no other choices but actually they have the choice to do or not to do. All the excuses given are just to make themselves feel more comfortable, like "I need to do this so that I get enough money for my son to study/to cure his diseases" and so on.
Since I was in primary school, I always concern about health and nutrition. My big dream is ensure all my family members, relatives and friends stay healthy always. My ambition is to be nutritionist who helps people to be healthier and happier. I believe that happiness is always influenced by health status. I did not have an opportunity to study full time nutrition course but I did look for alternative ways which I earn some money and manage to finish my part time diploma in nutrition. Currently, I am so proud to be a certified nutrition consultant and I start turning my family members to have healthier and healthier lifestyle. My teacher always tell me that solutions are always more than question. Really, we always have a choice!
Nowadays, high nutrition value-food are more expensive than the rest. An apple itself already cost RM1 plus and all the organic fruits and vegetables are sold at a higher price. Well, in this real business world, maybe we cannot decide the price of the things we want but we can decide how much we want to earn! Losers keep on complaining everything while winners already look for ways to be better.
Many of us are getting closer and closer to the graduation, which means that we will be employees and work in an organization. I will definitely do not say good things about an organization if I feel it is bad. I still remembered that when I was a promoter for Boss Coffee at Jaya Jusco, my duty is to promote it and tell people about its benefits. However, I have some basic knowledge on nutrition and I classify it as "unhealthy beverage" in my mind. Thus, I did not act aggressively and actually I just pretend to be aggressive when auditors come. In my opinion, it is normal that people love to share good things but do not want to share bad things. It is human nature. Thus, as an organization, whatever product they are selling, they have to be ethical so that the employees are happy to do their jobs. However, there are companies who keep advertising on the strength of product until consumers think it is good but actually it is not good.
Sometimes, companies blame that that is their choices to consume it. Consumers are taking it on their own risk. For example, panadol has so many side effects which are written so clearly in the details but still there are so many people taking it. Yes, it helps to solve certain problems but why not look at better alternative ways? They can actually choose to take natural food supplements which have no side effects to help improving their problems. Thus, the choice is always in consumers' hands! If there are no consumers, the product will not be there. In other words, "bad" products are produced because of those who wanted to consume it. Maybe the companies are not unethical, they are just producing something that someones want. They are"helping" them to have an opportunity to consume it.
The companies are having choices also. Produce a unhealthy product or healthy-look product or produce a real healthy product or produce a true organic good quality product? It is all depending on how the company decide to be.
Personally, I choose to be an independent business owner which I would love to be Amway's partner. So far I found Amway ethical and they are really doing things which helps people living better lives. But what if one day I found it changes and being unethical? First thing I would do is to find out the truth and improve the situation, if really cannot do anything and I cannot accept it then I will quit it as choice is always in my hands. Currently, I have strong confidence in Amway and I would like to pay hard work to succeed in Amway business.Before selecting where to work, it is actually more important to know and do proper research on the particular companies
As a conclusion, we always have a choice in either consuming products or selecting companies. Try to do something good and it is important to make ourselves have the choice to do the good things. When you have no choice, do something to change your situation so that you have some choices.
