In my opinion "loyalty" is best demonstrated by taking into consideration thge
welfare of the company. This is perhaps just a general as "loyalty," but I
think it may be better understood.

O.K, some examples I came up with:
Would it be more loyal for an employee to close his eyes on software bootlegging
within a company, or to bring to the attention of the appropriate supervisor
the damage that such action may bring about? I think a truly loyal employee
would indeed bring this to the attention of an appropriate supervisor, ALONG
with information how site licenses, house software, and other methods may lower
the cost of software without incurring unethical or damaging behaviour.
Would a loyal employee give up family time for a company? It depends. In case
of time sensitive projects, where the integrity of the company might e
compromised, a loyal employee (all of this is MY OPINION ONLY) would give up
some time. But he would not give up so much as to decrease his overall
productivity because that would NOT benefit the welfare of the company.
Given a project, would a loyal employee point out "better" ways of doing the
project? I think so. An indifferent employee might not, but a loyal employee
would bring the better solution to his supervisor's attention in a clear and
easily understood manner.
Would a loyal employee think and do on his own what would benefit the company
without taking time from his "first priority" duties? I think so. An
indifferent employee would not care, but a loyal employee would know what to do
with any time that may be unproductively assigned by his company, i.e. "waiting
for projects," if you will.
These are some examples. They are limited. They _are_ _my_ _personal_
_opinions_. I would like to hear what others have to say.
