While using ethics is a form of gathering information to make sure what you are talking about is accurate, instead of using assumptions and is also used for having a good behavior.  For example, if someone quits a job where you work and your boss wants you to cover that area that you have not worked before, then you will have to use critical thinking. By asking yourself, how will the person that was working there finish the work every day or how would your boss want you to complete the work until the area is covered? By asking yourself these questions, that shows that you are a good critical thinker and good problem solver. Also in this situation, you will use ethics to keep a good behavior to get the job done.
