Perhaps looking to join the "Mile High Club", Boeing CEO Harry C. Stonecipher resigned after it was revealed he was dipping his pen in the company ink. Boeing rules against sex and the shareholders get screwed. The Washington Post reported,
"He did a good job of working to restore Boeing's reputation and refurbishing ethical standards at the company, and that's what Boeing needed," said Philip Finnegan, director of corporate analysis at the Teal Group, a research firm. "Obviously there is going to be an immediate impression of continued disarray at Boeing."Violating no other policy apparently except potentially embarrassing the company (his own rule!), Stonecipher was outta there. This all reminds me of....
In the boss' office.
Boss: I'm going to get right to the point. It has come to my attention that you and the cleaning woman have engaged in sexual intercourse on the desk in your office. Is that correct?
George: Who said that?
Boss: She did.
George: Was that wrong? Should I have not done that? I tell you I gotta plead ignorance on this thing because if anyone had said anything to me at all when I first started here that that sort of thing was frowned upon, you know, cause I've worked in a lot of offices and I tell you people do that all the time.
