Chapt. 8

I feel as though Organizational Ethics builds off of previous chapters but one of the main and subtle points that I got was the change and stability (143). The chapter does talk about the "saying and what is said" (142-143) Which goes into change and stability; so what I got from that was that what is will change and what is going on won't be going on the way it is. 

The process of communication is built off because of the demands communication has in certain contexts. In this chapter I find that it is almost likely, the way we communicate in different places that demands different strategies for what we say to each other in a given setting. Dwelling places such as work, school, church, and home; are among the places where we change the or ethics every so slightly. We spend the the majority of our time in these institutions to where we would have a guideline or two on how interact with others in said places. Transition places like the bus, waiting rooms, airports aren't necessarily places where you hold many memories or stories with the people there. Those interactions generally are static, there isn't many ways to stabilized an ethical guideline to every person you encounter on a very short-term basis as you would with people in your dwelling place. 

I like to think of organizations as the "what we do with" and institutions being the "what we do in" (144). What we do in the organizations makes the institutions or vice versa. One without the other would be really weird and hard to imagine. It's like what a school means, it means learning; but one could also say that you could learn at home or with a group of people in the middle of the woods. Technically it is still a school based off the communication that is actually happening.
