an ethical dilemma. We face these dilemmas regularly and usually have no trouble resolving them. For example, we tell a friend they look nice in their new outfit when
in fact theyve made a poor choice and the clothing is unattractive. Here weve weighed the ethical standard of telling the truth at all times against the desire not
