What values do you see displayed by others at your job?

The observation and resulting commentary on values can only be subjective, since one's own values will dictate how the values of others are observed and reported. A person's values will only be displayed through his/her interaction with others and with his/her environment. Because of the foregoing statements, it becomes difficult to answer the question, since the values observed by one person may differ from those observed by another. It should therefore be understood that the answer will refer only to the workplace in question, and could be one of many different,or even contradictory, observations.
