Decision Making Basics
As a citizen you have some work with a government department. The official calls you again and again; and without directly asking you, sends out feelers for a bribe. You want to get your work done. You would.
Option B: Behave as if you have not understood the feelers and persist with your application. тЧЛ *Option A: Give a bribe.* This option is unethical and illegal. Giving a bribe perpetuates corruption and undermines the integrity of the system. It is not a recommended course of action for a responsible citizen. тЧЛ *Option B: Behave as if you have not understood the feelers and persist with your application.* This option is the most appropriate initial response. By acting as if you do not understand the indirect requests for a bribe, you maintain your integrity and continue to pursue your application through legitimate means. This approach allows you to adhere to ethical standards while still attempting to get your work done. тЧЛ *Option C: Go to the higher officer for help verbally complaining about feelers.* While this option could be effective, it may not always be practical or safe, depending on the situation and the culture of the organization. It could also lead to delays or complications in getting your work done. тЧЛ *Option D: Send in a formal complaint.* This is a valid option, but it might not be the first step to take. Formal complaints can be time-consuming and may not yield immediate results. It is often better to try to resolve the issue through less confrontational means first, such as persisting with your application without acknowledging the bribe feelers. If the issue persists, then a formal complaint could be considered.
