People who speed take reckless actions endangering others, therefore we should fire anybody who gets a speeding ticket. Thoughts?

Now take the same point and apply it to every other crime, misdemeanor, and breaking of rules. Should companies really operate based on that? Or should we maybe draw a boundary around professional life and only consider the professional life?

If your speeding ends up harming others and it comes to light then you will probably get fired yeah.

Most CEOs are gone the moment any affair comes to light, nevermind one supposedly with a Chinese spy.
