No Good Options – Now What?

Petra and Tracy are former university classmates and friends. After graduation, Petra became a philosophy professor and Tracy went into construction project management. In recent years they have taken a long walk each morning before starting their days. Sometimes they talk about life and family, and sometimes about work. Today, Tracy was clearly troubled and needed Petra’s perspective.

“I’ve got a problem and I don’t know what to do,” she said. “You’re the ethicist, maybe you have an idea!”

“Please go on, my child” replied Petra with a smile (she is all of 12 days older). “How can I help?”

“You know I’ve been given the JKL Tower project, right? It’s the biggest project in the city right now, and I’m wondering if I’m up to it. The architectural team has defined certain required tolerances for the building – the specifics aren’t important – but they far exceed what is required by the relevant regulations.”

“Well, that makes sense,” interjected Petra. “Sort of a belt and braces approach, right?”
