In my life I have modified the golden rule like so: "do unto others as they would do unto you" I have found that my modification allows the golden rule to work in cases where the person you are interacting with is less moral or honorable than you are. In this case I would consider if one of your coworkers had this knowledge how likely do you predict that they would share it with you? If you come to the conclusion that they would I personally would feel honor bound to do the same. On the other hand if it is more likely that they would use it to their advantage you have no moral responsibility to do otherwise though you may hold yourself to a higher standard and decide to do so just the same. Your family comes first, but knowing my family they would prefer to live with a father who is honorable and kind in a refrigerator box than a father who takes the most expedient route at the expense of his character in return for material rewards. I'll leave you with a few quotes from Aristotle on such matters that have helped me in that past so that they may help you find the best course of action for yourself. Good luck. "All persons ought to endeavor to follow what is right, and not what is established." "Character may almost be called the most effective means of persuasion." "Man is by nature a political animal." "Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees the others."
