This is not about the famous movie called “A Few Dollars More” by Clint Eastwood. It is about corruption in organizations. People become greedy in organizations and start taking money from vendors and service providers. People try to justify it for many reasons. Whatever it may be, it is just corruption. Undoubtedly, it dents the image of the doer. At the same time, it demoralizes others. In the end, the quality of work gets hampered. Further, it also instigates juniors to do the same.
When somebody does such things, people eventually come to
know. One can hardly stop such news from spreading. In this time of social
media, words spread like wildfire. So, one is risking his job and image for a
few dollars. Moreover, the vendors or service providers with whom the person
has done the deal will spread the news. They will approach others with the same
propositions citing the name and rate of getting things done. You can go to any nearby hotel or tea shop where all the flora and fauna could be found and listen to what they are saying.You will surely overhear a few such things. Then, your subordinates or colleagues are not fools even though you tend to think of them. They see through your dealings and words get out very easily. Only the fool is you who is thinking you are fooling everybody. People used to be very simple back in days. But, now a day, everyone is intelligent enough to spot slightest misplacement of the things.
At the end, words go higher to the top. Sometimes, there is no direct proof but there will be always some traces of wrongdoing. In the near future, the person will be under investigation or shunted to less important roles. With so many facilities and surveillance, one can be easily pinned down if the organization has the will. In my life, I have heard so many such stories of people getting fired, demoted or pay deducted. In a government-run organization, these go into your personal files and cause difficulty in promotion. No body likes an embezzler in the organization.
Greed kills your potential to go higher up. So, many people
have just ruined their careers for a small amount of money. There are other
avenues to increase your wealth legally. Besides, being free from vices keeps
you in peace. At the end of the day, everyone will earn something to live
happily ever after. Greed to earn a few dollars may fetch you all the undesirable complexities in life.
