Met a guy on a course once who had three teeth and a big scar on his forehead. After getting to know him over the course of a few weeks he explained that he had been out on the beer with a few mates a few years back. On his way home he passed an alley next to a night club where he witnessed three bouncers explaining 'club ettiquette' to a hapless young whippersnapper.
'I couldnt let it go, I had to do something'
He woke up three days later in hospital and drank tomato soup through a straw for a month.
'I'd do the same again', he said 'sometimes you just gotta make a stand'
go for it Sandy

For someone who has no qualms about walking out on a contract, I am surprised that you have the gall to claim that you have any ethics. There is an HR term for people like you and it is the word "terrorist".Originally posted by SandyDownSuppose one is aware that the consultancy one works for are doing something wrong, for example involved in some kind of a cover-up (covering mistakes by making changes to documents without the knowledge of the client), and suppose one tried gently to tell them that the cover-up approach is not ideal, honesty openness is a better policy in the long run, but one did not get anywhere !!
Which of the following options should one choose to act upon?
1- As long as you are not involved in the cover-up , keep your mouth shut – none of your business.. you get paid whatever happens
2- Blow the whistle, go to the most senior person in both the consultancy and the client and inform them of what you know
3- The cover-up is way too risky, keep calm, find another role, and leave quietly smelling with roses

Why does this situation occur so often ?
Might it have something to do with a system which is centered on the generation of personal wealth without qualification ?Comment
