Guest guest Posted March 10, 2006 Report Posted March 10, 2006 Respected Sir, I want to ask you a question. It is a personal question. I am a graduate student and working under a professor along with a post doc. Now this post doc. is my immidiate boss and the professor is my super-boss. Post doc. and Professor are not compatible with each other. Post doc thinks that professor is a mean person and professor think that post doc is a mean person. This post doc., whenever an experiment is done, manipulate the data of the experiment. I know this thing. But with post doc i have good relation, i also have good relation with professor. Post doc invites me for dinner ( sort of bribe), so that i could not tell the professor that he manipulates. And i dont want to hurt him by telling the professor that he manipulates. But if one day he got cought then that day i will also be consider responsible for the fake results. I keep on telling him that you should not do this but he says, " In this group, where the head ( professor) is a mean person you need to be a mean person too. " I am confused. Please tell me when there is such kind of situation then what should a person do ? And i can feel that i will face same kind of situation in my future life. Although i am not a person who takes the bribe but i am surrounded by people who take the bribes. What should i do ?
