and i'm very sad to say this, but not many people pass the 'my boss told me to' morality test working in tech consulting, i found that under the order of their boss, that average cubicle person is capable of about anything, no matter how dishonest not all, but the average, yes
Thanks, but I was kidding. Also, as nice as younger women are to look at and so on, I would prefer one who is age-appropriate. But maybe that's just me.
How about life-threatening, violent assault on an innocent victim who's pleading for his life? 65% would do it, you know. Proven fact. The Milgram Experiment
I sued a former employer in the early '90s and had to represent myself because I could not afford counsel, apart from an initial assessment. I had to subpoena about a half dozen witnesses. As a result of a number of them lying under oath, I then had to subpoena almost as many more to impeach the liars' testimonies. So, yes, I know firsthand how capable people are of being breathtakingly dishonest while maintaining a facade of decency and moral rectitude. Fortunately, I won my case. Unfortunately, it was little more than a moral victory because remedies here in Canada pale in comparison to those in the US, all else being equal.
its like what they say about politicians... a talking politician is lying... a quiet politician is stealing..

How about Client number 9 action? Beside kidding, it's a sign that they are trying to cover the hidden unethical actions or intentions. Good people have no need to promote themselves.

This is like Cox saying the SEC has "high standards" during his press conference. He doesn't say what he is comparing it to though, so it could be a dung beetle on a steamy, stinking pile...
advised him that while facts may be facts (if absolutely necessary), his opinions belonged to the bank. So, in fact, there was even not-so-subtle coercion --------------------------------- What a rotten deal but it figures.
