Excerpt from Getting a Living: A Vocational Civics Reader In connection with each occupation discussed in this book the following points should be invariably considered: First, the nature of the occupation. Second, the chances for advancement. Third, the educational and other qualifications necessary for success. Fourth, the service that may be rendered to the community. Fifth, the business ethics involved. By business ethics is meant both what the employee has a right to expect from the employer, as to hours, conditions of work, and treatment generally, and what the employer has a right to expect from the employee, namely, obedience, courtesy, helpfulness, honesty, punctuality, self-control, industry, etc. - in short, the civic virtues. Without the Fourth and Fifth, the course would be one in vocational guidance only; with them, the course becomes one in vocational civics.
