Question

A new doughnut shop sends 3 dozen doughnuts to the newsroom as a thank-you for the features profile from yesterday. You: A. Bring them to a homeless shelter; you can't accept gifts. B. Share them with the office to celebrate a job well-done.

Answer 1

B. Share them with the office to celebrate a job well-done.

Explanation:

This is a question about ethics.

There are 3 dozen doughnuts, which is equal to 36 doughnuts, probably enough to go round the office of the newsroom.

The feature profile from yesterday was a team work, you were not the only one involved, since the doughnut was brought to the newsroom, it is ethical that you share them with the office to celebrate a job well-done. This shows that you appreciate the team work put together by the whole office.

As noble and benevolent as taking the doughnut to the homeless center, it wont be ethical in this situation.
