You're right. It is easy to rationalize this sort of behavior. But I think there's a few things going on, that mutate normal action/response.
1. Family. Doing this the "right way" would mean fessing up. And that means alienating and testifying against family. Unless they're Hannibal The Cannibal, or other absolutely horrible crimes against humanity, you're not going to want to destroy your family and the business.
2. Inertia. It was already done, we're just doing it how it was done before. (Insert "Cause everyone else does it").
- kbenson 10y agoSure, I was referring more to the general case, which may or may not include family or friends (beyond co-worker friends). Family obviously makes it harder to report, but I don' t think it's in any way a requirement. Inertia is a big one though, I think your're spot on there.
