MORAL DILEMMAS...

A friend of yours is an artist. She hasn’t had a lot of success yet. She invites you to her first exhibition and obviously hopes that you will buy one of her paintings. They are not very good and they are not very cheap. Do you feel you have to buy one?

Your boss gives you expensive tickets to see a pop group in concert. You forget to make a note of the date in your diary or on the calendar and so you miss the show. The next day, your boss asks you how the show was. Do you tell him you missed it?

You order something from a mail order catalogue. After the item has arrived you receive a refund from the mail order company and a letter explaining that the item is out of stock. It seems that there has been some kind of computer error. Do you tell the company about their error and give the money back?

Peer Group Pressure: Round 14 - Sanjung

Sanjung told a story about how he used to have a classmate who was a thief. He stole large amounts of money and many mobile phones. Eventually he was found out and then disappeared. It was true. But unfortunately for Sanjung, the class was more or less split down the middle, denying him the chance of registering a big score. Sanjung 17 v 15 Everyone Else.
