Business has loyalty to nothing but the perceived bottom line.
Here is a very condensed story about business by (I think) someone who wrote for Saturday Night Live.
It had to do with Flavius, a rags to riches, tremendously wealthy Roman businessman who could get anything for anyone for any reason while applying the appropriate bribery and burning out the competition and would do anything to close a deal - for the right price, of course.
One night he had closed a very profitable clandestine deal in which the client had been lubricated with a sumptuous meal and plenty of wine in a sensual, convivial atmosphere. Flavius then packed the client off to a magnificent bedroom with a young women from the very best whorehouse in Rome.
Shortly afterwards, while counting newly acquired Denarii in the manner of Scrooge McDuck diving into a pool of money, Flavius heard the client bellowing down the corridors "FLAVIUS, WHAT THE HELL IS THIS??? IF THIS IS SOME KIND OF JOKE THE DEAL'S OFF!!!!"
Flavius sprinted through his mansion to where he had quartered the client and asked what was wrong. The client replied that the woman wasn't giving him what he wanted. Flavius ordered the gorgeous woman to perform. The client then said "Blow me" whereupon, with an utterly innocent sweet smile, she pursed her lips and blew her breath upon the client. Realizing that the woman was inexperienced and had no idea of what was required, Flavius took hold of the client's flaccid member and said to the woman "
WATCH CAREFULLY, I'M ONLY GOING TO DO THIS ONCE."
