Bonita and Samuel are concerned about some workplace activities on the part of four coworkers. One employee, for example, makes frequent personal long distance phone calls, and all four take home office supplies that they don’t replace. Because management hasn’t stopped them (and even seems to be turning a blind eye), other employees are beginning to think that such activities are quite acceptable.

Even if not illegal, these actions can violate company policies or ethical standards, and if management ignores such behavior, it can be seen as tacit approval, potentially leading those in authority over the manager to view these actions as unethical.
