What Is Santa Clause Unethical
It is not legal or ethical for the malls to refuse to hire the elvettes because it will be illegal based on discrimination if they refuse to hire them. I understand that the mall is advertising the brand name of Santa Claus and the customers want Santa Claus. It is unethical for them to disregard the elvettes just because they are female because they are selling the image of Santa Claus and if they look like Santa Claus then they should be accepted by the malls otherwise, they could refuse. Santa acted ethically by sending the female elvettes instead of male elves on three accounts. On the first account, Santa has a deontologist perspective because his duty is to the children and not the malls. Santa is trying to fulfill his obligation of making every kid wish list come true by having these Santa’s come to the mall to hear their wish list. Santa Claus has a utilitarian approach, which is in the best interest of the children. Santa has weighed the good versus bad outcome of sending the male elves that have the flu to the mall and has decided to not take the risk of affecting the kids with the flu from the elves that are portraying Santa Claus. On …show more content…
Santa has to show his employee that he is enthusiastic about the work, looks forward to working, and puts 100% into work, and best as well as most ethical decision. Santa would try to keep people engaged in work in four ways: employees see what direction company is going, involvement- two-way communication and make employee feel a part of the team; Information has to be shared kind of culture and system of reward and recognition. In terms of a deontologist, utilitarian, virtue perspective the most effective way of employee engagement is honesty. Santa Claus problems keep on piling including the Little Miss Fluzie

    Santa is a man that represents the Spirit of Christmas. Kris Kringle believed himself to be Santa Claus, and the courts even ruled he is not crazy. It really comes down to perception. I can deeply believe I am an angel and even convince others I am an angel. Does that mean I am crazy or are we not agreed on what that really means? Kris Kringle is Santa Claus, but we have to decide what that means. Does he have reindeer that fly and pull a sleigh with all the children of the world’s presents? Does he have time to go to every obedient child's house and fit through the chimney? Does he have magic? Is he all knowing? Of course not, but he is still Santa Claus. For one thing, Kris Kringle didn’t disagree when the parents of the children flat out said they needed to go and buy their children the gift Santa just said they would receive. For example, the lawyer putting Santa on trial even admitted that he was the one who purchased the gifts for his son.…

    Tobolowsky’s article echoes thoughts and feelings about Santa, fears about life, and general doubts that are common to almost every child at some point in his or her life. Stephen describes childhood events and his own propensity toward fear and doubt in a frank and humorous manner that reminds me of Ralphie’s narration in A Christmas Story. Underneath the humor, however, there exists the real torment of doubt and fear that Stephen experiences, fear of the dark, fear of strange noises at night, fear of monsters living in his bedroom. While these fears simply frustrate his well-intentioned parents, they drive Stephen to create remedies of his own to allay his fears. However,…

    They say honesty is the best policy. But when it comes to Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy, are we being dishonest with our children or just telling those stories. In the essays, “Santa Claus Isn’t Coming to Town” written by Allison and “Truth and the Santa Claus Moment,” written by Corey Harbaugh, the writers discuss the values of honesty and the moments we choose to believe in.…

    “Maybe there really is a Santa Claus.” Many ideas can be interpreted from this simple sentence written in Miranda's diary, on page 139 of Life As We Knew It, by Susan Beth Pfeffer! Santa Claus, the world's beloved giver of gifts, transporter of toys, rider of reindeer, is more important than you might think. Most children only realize the minimum, that they have to behave, in order for Santa to bring them more presents. In reality, Santa is giving them the best gift of all,everlasting hope. Santa allows kids to have something to look forward to all year round, his arrival. The thought of his presence is like a beacon of hope, or belief for people of all ages. The only problem is, when kids find out he isn't real. That day, where they overhear…

    The Grinch is believed to hate Christmas because he felt alienated from society due to his nature and strange appearance. He is a green monster whose entire body is covered with bright green fur and comes out of his cave during Christmas to wreak havoc among the residents of Whoville. People always knew that he never wanted to be social during Christmas time. They always told stories of how his shoes where too small to fit, and how his head wasn’t screwed on all the way.…

    Here are some reasons, the first reason is, in the Christmas carol he made a character named scrooge. Scrooge is supposed to be a bad, cruel, and a rude person. No one likes him in the Christmas carol, everyone is afraid of him. Dickens also created three spirits in the story. Each spirit is supposed to teach Scrooge lessons and his mistakes. The spirits threaten him if he doesn’t change and fix his mistakes. The first spirit took him on a trip into his Christmas past to show him how he acted when he was little. When Scrooge was little his life was filled with joy and happiness but now Scrooge’s life is very dark. The spirit is trying to show Scrooge what is missing in his life. Which is joy and happiness.…

    Skewed thoughts of how and why to celebrate Christmas has trampled the faith-based version of the holiday. In movies widely popular in the younger generation, the celebration of Christmas revolves around unrealistic traditions, such as receiving gifts from Santa and his reindeer. Reality, however, differs. Christmas should revolve less around fantasies and materialistic gifts and more toward appreciation, family, and Jesus Christ (the reason for the season). For instance, movies such as “Rudolph the Rednose Reindeer” directed by Larry Roemer and the many sequels of “Santa Claus” directed by John Pasquin have plots about elves and reindeer trying to impress Santa. Adults focus on the legend of Saint Nicholas when teaching their children about Christmas causing them to lose sight of its religious…

    At the beginning of this section, Stuever talks mainly about the artificial side of Christmas, about how everything can be “better”, which is talked about repeatedly on page 306. “They suggest the lakeside lights… villages and quain sounding burgs in Minnesota and Vermont.(306)” “... people waiting in line to see one Santa tell me about Santas who are better (more beloved)... People point me to “better” people, too, by which they mean people having nobler, more storybook Noels…(306)” All around him there is unhappiness or dissatisfaction with what people currently have. He can find nothing else except people seeking for something “better” to fill their shallow hearts, and when that isn't enough, they move on again. Then, Stuever drops one tiny little bomb meant to touch our hearts on what Christmas is really about: the children.…

    Ellms Gender Roles

    I have been an employee at Ellms Family Farm for 2 years now, and I have enjoyed my time working for Chip and Sally Ellms. Ellms offers good, old-fashioned family fun and contributes to the community by employing local teens. The management is particularly expertise at dealing with their young employees, and are accommodating with flexible hours and thorough training. However, there is one policy that I disagree with, which mandates that jobs on the farm be assigned according to sex, and coincide with traditional gender roles. The male employees do the physical labor and take leadership positions while female employees interact with customers and hand out refreshments. This policy becomes particularly problematic during the christmas tree season, when only the male employees are given the opportunity to cut trees and make tips…
