You find a wallet in the street with an address inside. Would you keep it?
Finding a wallet on the street with an address in it presents an interesting dilemma. Most people would likely feel it’s their responsibility to return the wallet to its rightful owner. However, one person in the class mentioned they would keep the wallet. This person might feel uncertain about how to track down the owner or perhaps think it’s a rare opportunity to find something valuable. However, keeping the wallet without attempting to return it would go against the general principle of honesty, which the majority would adhere to, as it is often seen as the morally right thing to do.

A shopkeeper gives you too much change. Would you tell them?
Imagine being given too much change at a store, either through a mistake or oversight by the cashier. Five people in the class admitted that they would not tell the shopkeeper about the mistake and would keep the extra change. While it might seem like a harmless error, keeping the extra money could be considered dishonest. The majority, however, would feel compelled to inform the shopkeeper because they believe honesty is important in these everyday situations. Returning the extra money would not only correct the mistake but also help maintain trust between customers and shopkeepers. It’s important to remember that small acts of honesty can often have a ripple effect in building a more trustworthy society.

You didn’t work on a Saturday, but your boss still pays you. Would you return the money?
This scenario involves an issue of fairness and personal integrity. Two people in the class said they wouldn’t return the money if their boss accidentally paid them for a day they didn’t work. While it may feel tempting to keep the extra pay, most of the class agreed that they would return the money. Returning the payment demonstrates respect for fairness and transparency in the workplace. Moreover, it could showcase the individual’s strong moral character and commitment to doing the right thing, which could be noticed by their boss and possibly lead to positive outcomes in terms of career growth or future opportunities. Being honest in situations like this is key to maintaining a good reputation and fostering a positive work environment.
