Ethics...anyone?

Lack of ethics is one of the worst things I have ran across in my life.  Unfortunately, I have found a lot of it surrounding me since our move to Texas.  People doing what is best for their pocket book, not their client, their friend, their family or even their own business.  Has anyone ever heard of Karma or long term effect of such behavior?

I am not sure when I became so sensitive.  I have been told that I give 100% and that is why when someone does something so negative towards me it has a crucial effect on my heart and soul.  I tend to think that when you mess with my hard earned money that feeds and cares for my children; that is when I get angry.  Unfortunately, I am not angry - I am severely hurt.

One man took $1,000 and now the woman that saw me go through that very hell has chosen to take $2,000 from me.  I do not care if I had millions of dollars; I earned that money by working harder, smarter and faster than the others.  The clients involved have gotten their product, the individuals have received their payments, yet my pocket is empty.  You're welcome?

I feel punished, slighted and certainly discounted.  I was also accused of sending my blog to one of these individuals clients.  No, I didn't.  My blog is, however, available to the public and some of those clients may already be linked to me on social media.  You see, I build relationships with people.  I do not just charge them for undocumented time and forget they are out there.

I wish I was able to be as unethical as they are, but I would never be able to look myself in the mirror.  And, most recently, I like looking at myself...more so than before.  I want those clients to know more about the individuals they are trusting with their financial and company information.  If I were the only example of either of them cheating someone I believe it would be less bothersome,  That is not the case for either individual.

I have decided, on pure principle, that I will not let them cheat me.  Maybe this will keep them from doing it to someone else in the future.
