Coming Clean
Monday, October 31, 2011
About once a week we see an article such as this one in The Toronto Star.
A high-profile player resigns after being caught out.
It is never what they did and got caught at that does it.
It is always the denial that they did it.
- You seduced the president’s wife and denied it?
You don’t jump because you seduced; you jump because you were found out to have lied about whether you did or didn’t seduce.
- You falsified the company’s books and denied it?
You don’t jump because you falsified; you jump because you were found out to have lied about whether you did or didn’t falsify.
- You stole the cookie and denied it?
You don’t jump because you stole; you jump because you were found out to have lied about whether you did or didn’t steal.
Cliché alert: Honesty is the best policy.
If you did wrong, ‘fess up and keep your job/position/contract.
For one thing you’ll appear to be human, and humans love humans!
