I mean... this is exactly why I've avoided becoming a manager in the past. I will accept being responsible for my own work, but I don't want to be accountable for someone else's work.

Do you think it is unethical to be a manager?

No, but it's not a job for me. Someone has to do it, though, but I'd rather it not be me.

If you don't "want" to do something, that's not a religious or ethical exemption, that's just you not wanting to do something.

And by the same token, if my job turns around and requires me to do something I don't want to do, I would quit. Or try to get fired, if I was feeling spiteful.

I'm not arguing on this guy's behalf, I only made a comment.
