Although the supervisor sees this as the only means of obtaining the small quantity of specialized tool upon which company survival rides (a volume which the outside firm could not feasibly produce with any profitability for themselves), the new-hire recognizes that misrepresenting his company’s intentions to another company would not only be a sure way of gaining an even worse industry reputation than what his new company already had but quite possibly immerse the company in a costly and counterproductive legal proceedings. The new-hire figures out an alternative approach which preserves both his personal ethics and his company’s reputation. No sources are listed.
