My intention in refusing to give away friend’s telephone numbers and names was to protect their privacy. Although I would like to help others, I could not violate the interests of my friend in order to satisfy the need of Yogawave manager.
6. How does this intention compare with the probable results?
My intention was to protect friends from privacy disclosing. There were two other probable results. One of them was that I could promise to invite a friend to take part in yoga courses instead of just refusing the managers’ requirement. The other decision that I can make was to give away my
friends’ telephone number after asking for their permission. The two probable results would meet both the benefit of the manager and my friends, but I need to sacrifice more time to achieve the results.
7. Who could your decision or action injure?
The Yogawave manager would be injured by my choice to refuse giving away telephone
numbers. The telephone numbers and names would be important for him to solicit new customers and achieve the month marketing goals. His bonus would reduce because of falling to meet the outstanding achievement.
8. Could you discuss the issue with affected parties before you make your decision?
I could discuss the problem with both the manager and my friends. For the manager, I could discuss the problem of violating privacy with him, and try to figure out some other available method to help him. For my friends, I could discuss this issue with them to ask if it is ok to disclose their telephone number for advertisement using.
9. Are you confident that your actions will be correct over a long period?
I am confident that my actions are correct both in short run and long run. Although it was wrong to refuse to help other people, the precondition of doing favor to someone was that it should not do harm to other parties. It would be correct for a long time for protecting my friends’ privacy.
