Thank you for this. I am in a dilemma right now that if I do the right thing it will put people out of work in a place where jobs are scarce. I am losing sleep over it now an I have not said anything yet. The stigma of being a snitch, the idea that I may never be able to get gainful employment in this town again makes me think I should just keep my mouth shut. "Not my company not my responsibility". But it is. fuck

What a difficult position to be in. Just don't put yourself in a position where you're left holding the bag. Best of luck!

I fear I could be scapegoated. There are only 2 people above me in the company. I know better therefore I should do better. I struggle with the morality of protecting myself while possibly putting others at risk. I mean would you really care about my bills if I my silence harmed someone you cared about. I could claim ignorance but that just harms me with future employers. Fucked if I do, fucked if I don't. Better grab some lube.

Half will think u r a snitch the other half will think u were unethical. Either way it will effect your professional reputation.

This is important because many people have no idea what they are getting themselves into. An attorney will paint a rosy picture and not explain that you might be putting yourself and your family in jeopardy.

Be quiet. Don’t anger the bully or become a target.
Be loud. Call out the bully and get bullied.
Join the bully. Earn Brownie points.
