[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is OP.  I asked because I work in the private sector for a fortune 500, and people  in the private sector do it all the time for their children, relatives, neighbors' kids, friends, etc...  I did it a few times myself.  What is such a big deal about it?[/quote]

Unfortunately OP Gov jobs are under different guidelines. Absolutely people do it in the private sector all the time.[/quote]

Are they, though? Ivanka and Jared were officially on a US payroll, or were they working for free? Serious question. Did they go through the Gov hiring process?[/quote]

Now you are being silly.

Op, it's unethical because your DH loses his impartiality when it comes to this contractor. Your son has nothing to do with official duty and allowing his contractor do his bidding, violates that. Impartiality can be real or perceived, it does not matter. His contractor might think "he owes me a favor" or your DH might think "I owe him a favor"... Even if they don't, it doesn't matter because perception is that they both do. [/quote]
