Scene to read · Ethics, Self-awareness
Selling the shared study guide
You are a co-author of a study guide, and you are in the student lounge with two other co-authors who disagree.
In a student lounge, Alvaro and Amabel stand with you after the final exam review. You three wrote the study guide together over a semester. Alvaro wants to sell it to the wider class for a small fee, while Amabel disagrees. Nobody has been asked about money before.
The scene
Alvaro: Everyone asks for the guide. Let's charge five dollars for months' work.
Amabel: We built it together for free, Alvaro. We never discussed money.
Alvaro: Hours of careful work should count for something, Amabel. Why bother?
Amabel: Then let's decide together, but I won't back this. You're the tiebreaker.
