I agree that your friend should have addressed the issue right there and then. I don't agree that Mrs. Q did anything unethical. She wanted to do a good job, requested help and offered to pay for it out of her own pocket. I think that makes her a great and unusually conciencious worker. There's not many people like her. She's a dream employee!
I understand that someone might get upset that Stacey gets extra hours and makes more money than they do but she would be getting paid extra for doing extra work. It doesn't mean that you all automatically
deserve more money just because Stacy lucked out and got a side job! The other eight paras might be jealous and cause problems so I understand that it might be a bad idea to do it but there's nothing
unethical about Mrs. Q's offer to Stacy. You and the other paras might not LIKE it because it's not to your financial advantage but there's nothing morally or ethically wrong with Mrs. Q's request . Do you know what unethical means?
