Look in his face and say 'that was an 8, not a 3'
You sir are going places...maybe prison or ceo...maybe both
In business school
I think I found your problem.
Nah, he wants to see if anon can be shamed about his lack of ethics.
If he is shameless, CEO behavior.
If he is ashamed, McDonald's behavior.
If you lie about it, then just par for the course and you can be a broker anywhere. Gotta feed out the line to find the narcissistic socios and not the stealthy ones.
Aye same thought. He was testing the group. OP should have been blunt like "IDGAF and was the only one of you honest enough to admit it"
It wasn't a test about how ethical you are, but how moral you are
Goes to business school, shock that the people are twats. Yeah, they are going to school to learn how to be the owner class, what you expect, empathy?
"ha ha no judgement (:" proceeds to judge
methinks professor is not very ethical
Yeah, he said to lie
I'm not actually sure what the point of this greentext is supposed to be.
It's very clearly not a true story. Not particularly funny. Is this just a circle jerk for insulting people who wear a suit and tie to work?
Don't mind the suit and tie, just the unethical practices every single major businesses handles in.
The right hates colleges. Might be one of those people.
They're honestly the worst
Anon learned his professor wants you to lie.
kinda par for the course... literally a business course so....
I woulda told him to practice his preachings
I accidentally ended up at a religious university for medical school and you better believe I've gotten in numerous fights with the law and ethics professor (who, to be fair, is actually a MD/JD) regarding the prescribed conservative religious approach to the ethics discussions. I absolutely did not change his mind, but I did get a bunch of my classmates to start asking questions by putting myself out there and challenging the professor on their BS.
Edit: I should clarify that these fights were on mic in the recorded lectures, so there's a hard record of my arguing with him.
religious university
medical school
Alright class, now that we've removed the patient's lungs, we're gonna pray he gets better. Yes, I see a raised hand in the back row?
Yes, sorry - doesn't he need a lung to survive?
Right, good catch. We're first going to pray he grows a lung. Yes, you with the notebook?
Who will be doing the closing?
That'll be sister Jane. Sister, 12 "hail Marys" and a closing prayer, please. Class dismissed.
And then I guess y'all watch as the man flatlines while the nuns go "please give this one some sutures God, I promise I'll be good from now on" and "God, if ever you were going to grow organs, please, now's the time. The man can't breathe. It's not his fault"
Sounds like a good time. Do they give degrees or do you need to pray to get hired?

Oh, yeah, we've all been there.
Also, religion and medicine don't seem like things that should mix. They are bringing preconceived notions to the table that are not supposed by logic, that seems dangerous in the medical setting
Thankfully, the extent of the religion in the education is in the ethics discussions and strong recommendations to discuss spirituality and religion with your patients because faith communities are "very important". The religion does not make it into any of the actual medicine or science.
religion and medicine don’t seem like things that should mix
I mean I get where you're coming from, but in places that don't have a secular medical establishment it's usually spiritual practitioners that fill the gap.
My concern is that in my experience religious dogma and anti-vaxism tend to go hand in hand.
Also the whole abortion debate which is really something that should even be a debate.
I'm guessing the most important lesson in such a school is to not get upset when morons start praising God almighty after you saved their loved one in a day long operation or something.
You know, I'd be fine with it if it was God who got the credit as long as he also got the blame, but when I do something good and they start thanking God up and down, while when I make a decision they don't like they start fuming that I am the arbiter of this darkness...
Counter with, "this isn't a job interview" or "I'm vying for a job in the oil and gas industry".
Should have just said they were going to become a politician.
The professor
Anon had a massive dunk on his professor lined up.
"You said there would be no judgement and said that people should lie rather than put an accurate score on an ethics survey. Wouldn't that make your score lower than 36 then?"
The professor probably would have responded that his response was another part of the lesson: don't trust those above you in a business setting.
I guess the answer would be "but I have a job already"...
"Yeah, and judging by how you immediately put down one of your students I suspect you lied to get it."
"Now you're getting it kid."
36 seems like an accurate score for someone going to Business School.
For the most ethical of people going to business school. Everyone else lied.
