You've started your own small company

After a lot of thought, you've taken the plunge, sold your house, got into debt to fund it. New product, nothing else on the market. Employed the best staff with the best credentials. You just know you'll be highly respected when you pull it off. What's to go wrong?

Scrolling through TV channels, you happen on the programme Naked Attraction.

One of your staff employed to get out there to promote the company is a contestant.

Your reputation and company could surely be ruined by this.

What would you do?

Nothing, nobody with any influence would watch crap like that.

Record the programme for a start.


I still believe all publicity is good publicity so perhaps they could be involved in the promotion.

Really???? Blimey, what next. I live a sheltered life.

To answer the question then. I would turn a blind eye, Pesta.

Re: You've started your own small company

A good product will still sell, and I very much doubt the actions of one member of staff on an obscure late night tv program would have any effect whatever, so as long as the staff member fulfilled her job description whilst at work then personally I would do nothing...

I was going to agree with that, then changed my mind - even people with influence/and or breeding have hidden depths and secrets

Depends what your product is whether Naked Attraction would help or hinder.

Who knows you could streak ahead with profits.

Possibly so.
But would her outside activities be grounds for dismissal?
Probably not.
