Have any of you ever played the board game "Scruples" where players sweat as they ask each other what they would do in a moral predicament? There is no right or wrong answer but you MUST answer honestly! It's fun! 

I'll start the game by Posing the first moral dilemma and then everyone who wishes may answer it and someone else can ask another question.

Question:

"You've sold your house. Before you move out, the roof starts to leak. Do you have it fixed?"

If at the time the house was sold, the roof was NOT leaking, I would inform the agent and the owners of the new development and offer to split the cost of having the roof repaired.

Depends on a lot of factors Diana (such as damage done), but if it was just a small fresh leak caused by a broken/slipped tile etc, or some simple repointing was needed, then i'd just send Sarah up to fix it and save all involved any cost. Laughing

Okay, I'll post a second dilemma:

You know your best friend and fellow employee is stealing from the cash drawer. Do you tell your employer?

Yes, because then maybe they can get some help that might be badly needed. If they are my best friend then they should forgive me for trying to help. If not then they couldn't have been that good of a friend.
