NO INTEGRITY PLEASE

This episode, like all others, is a product of my own experience while being a part of a huge multi national company. This company focused immensely on ethics and integrity. For me this code of conduct, to work with integrity, was written in blood and I followed it painstakingly! However, as much as I was surprised, I was fairly shocked too when I found out the extent to which ethics was compromised at all levels which were directly in contact with the suppliers! This I got know when I left the company!

I had big dreams and to do bigger things in life and used to fret at my low income and high expenses. I had, at all times, a chance to make big sums by compromising my conscience and the company credibility! However, it never struck me to stoop so low.

The old adage cannot be more true - "We are what we do, when we are alone" and unless we are true to ourselves there is a meek chance to ever come out of mediocrity!

Those who indulge in bribery, at any level, and for any amount, and if nudged get furious, can still mend their ways & shed this stinking cloak!

There might just be a little hope for you. Might!
