Our epic's being well said morality tales reminds me of an ethic followed by kshatriyas - never fight an opponent with weapons when he has none to defend himself.
It was a shame to see such an attitude in display. As despicable a braging as it can get. Don't we have a moral obligation to lend shoulders and cushion when a fellow company (even if a competitor) is in such distress?
Ironically this mail followed a previous one which tells the story of an athletic event where one of the contestants slipped over a hurdle and the rest came back to help em and they all walked to the finish line.
Yes, I staunchly believe in objectivism. But that does not mean you should demean by using others foibles to elevate thyself.
Building your success specifically over others failure, now is that ethical? I believe a healthy competetion is a better way to go, and which works in the long term. Even for that matter monopoly and such business practices are based on ones greater strength more than another weakness.
A race where you get your competetors knocked out to win the race is politics!!! It will kick-back at you some day.
A true race is where you dash to the finish line with your competitors, n savour the fruits of the result as they are. A race whence lost would be sweet, and when WON would be even sweeter :) an experience.

true sportsmanship is needed in every sport.always fight a fair fight with the equals.
ur expecting the level of values from an entire generation that has grown up to work in the corporate world where one builds their success on someone elses failure. naturally their organisations outlook will what the employees will also have, therefore this mail is quite natural.
u rnt fit to work in corporate world, inda madri ellan yoischa
maams ..enna ethu ? ennomo talkings ?
Yercaud!! Bet you had a nice time there. Lots of memories for me...did my schooling there. Any photos??
thnx folks!!!
@vatsan: to wash our hands saying there are no ethics @ business is easy don't u thing? ... am I seeing the indifference of good men here :-/ (in ref to my post on http://samy-scribbles.blogspot.com/2005/09/veritas-et-acquitas.html)
organization principles/values perclorating into its people is fair enough, but this was an opinion of an individual who had lost his nut, ppl who built the later for sure didn't base their success (to whatever end it was) on such misfortune
ur generalizing the corporate world da, its the lurching hypocritic attitude that I was hinting at, a few ppl down the ladder make the entire org luk stupid (no intension of the founder)
a race has only one winner, n so does a tender, how long dyu think such ill practices lead to healthy growth? belive me they will not survive the winter
maybe I am unfit in corporate world, I'v felt so myself. and its not worth changing my principles for theirs, for I'll always seek my atlantis
why dyu think ppl change jobs so much (apart from the monetary benefits)? a satisfaction towards an individuals morals and principles
everyone of us build's our own world of rules, n we gel with those that matches most with ours :p
@ducky: photos of yercaud ... will post em soon :)
