I'm here today to share a good lesson with you. It is a true story about astudent who studiedin Germany.
After years of hard work, this student graduated with amazing achievements. Everyone was sure thathe was going to get a good job easily and have a bright future. But to his surprise, he was not even given the chance for an interview! The third time he was refused, he couldn't help telephoning the company to ask whythey didn't want him. The answer was simple. “We don't offer jobs to dishonestpeople in Germany.”
What was wrong, you might wonder? The truth is, shortly after he arrived in Germany, this clever student found that it was easyto skip(逃票)buying subway ticketsin this country. So in order tosave money, he often went in the subway without a ticket. As a result, he had been caughtwithouta ticketmany times.
From this story, we learn that we may get short-term benefits in dishonest ways, but the truth will come outsooner or later and the cost is high. So remember: honesty is the bestrule.
Did the student often buy a ticket when he took the subway?
