Should we not have higher expectations for rich senior executives than we do your average teenager?

I'm not objecting to holding executives at higher standard. I'm objecting to zero-tolerance policies at workplace (or anywhere), which is (in a way) the opposite of holding people at higher standard: it's basically saying "I don't trust you to have common sense, so here are the rules and you will follow them unquestionably."
It's a pain in the ass for those who have common sense, and unmitigated disaster for those who don't.

Everyone thinks they have common sense but it all goes out the window when romance is involved. When you decide to date a close coworker, you are setting her (and it’s always her) to lose her job or feel uncomfortable enough that she needs to leave, if it doesn’t work out. Many men don’t even consider that ‘cause hormones.

No, theen who don't consider it get laid while the men who do consider don't get anywhere.
You'll notice these themes are always repetively "sex bad!" with no "sex good" elements ever.

Oh - do a lot of rich senior executives display a greater degree of sexual restraint than high school students?
