The Morality of Dishonesty…<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Robbers entered a bank in a small town. One of them shouted:\u00a0 “Don’t move! The money belongs to the bank. Your lives belong to\u00a0 you.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Immediately all the people in the bank laid on the floor\u00a0quietly and without panic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is an example of how the correct wording of a sentence\u00a0can make everyone change their view of the world\u00a0.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One woman laid on the floor and smiled provocative\u00a0 manner. The robber approached her saying, “Lady\u00a0, this is a robbery not a love. Please behave accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This is an example of how to behave professionally, and focus\u00a0 on the goal\u00a0.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

While running from the bank the youngest robber (who had a\u00a0 college degree) said to the oldest robber (who had barely finished\u00a0 elementary school): “Hey, maybe we should count how much we\u00a0 stole? “The older man replied: “Don’t be stupid. It’s a lot of money so\u00a0let’s wait for the news on TV to find out how much money was taken\u00a0from the bank.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is an example of how life experience is more important\u00a0 than a degree.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the robbery, the manager of the bank said to his\u00a0 accountant: “Let’s call the cops and tell them how much has been\u00a0 stolen. ” Wait, said the Accountant, “before we do that, let’s add that\u00a0 money we took for ourselves over the past few months and also add in any other problems and just say that it was stolen as part of today’s robbery.”\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is an example of taking advantage of an\u00a0 opportunity.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following day it was reported in the news that the bank was robbed of\u00a0Rs\u00a03 Crores.
The robbers then counted the money, but they found only Rs\u00a01 Crore so they started to grumble.
“We risked our lives for\u00a0Rs\u00a01 Crore, while the bank’s management robbed two million\u00a0 dollars without blinking..?\u00a0Maybe its better to learn how to work\u00a0the system, instead of being a simple robber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This is an example of how knowledge can be more useful than\u00a0 power\u00a0.<\/strong>

Moral\u00a0: \u00a0\u00a0Give a crook a gun, and he can rob a bank .\u00a0Give a crook a\u00a0bank, and he can rob everyone.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
