Ten Moral Dilemmas ... What Would You Do?
Posted: Wed Nov 28, 2012 10:01 am
1. Is it okay to use work supplies or mail for personal purposes?
2. You find $20 on a bus seat. Do you ask around to see if anyone dropped it?
3. Your partner has left his/her email open on your shared computer. Is it okay to take a look at the inbox? What about at a specific email?
4. The clerk at the grocery store gives you too much change. Do you tell her?
5. Is it okay to stretch the truth on your taxes? For example, a home office that also acts as a playroom, or a business trip that mixed in pleasure?
6. Is it okay to take a free sample of something, even though you know you won’t buy it?
7. Your hairdresser, doctor, or dentist is fully booked for two weeks. Is it okay to see someone else?
8. The food at a restaurant is less than stellar. Do you let it affect your tip for the waitress?
9. You wear a new shirt once and decide you don’t like it. Is it okay to return it—even though it’s been worn?
10. You’re about to serve food to guests at a dinner party, and you drop a serving or two on the floor. It’s salvageable, and no one sees. Do you still serve them?
