The following question was presented:
Let's get the old moral juices flowing again. Many times we hear terms like taking one for the team. I think it's a hard thing to do if it means someone's going to think bad of you though. Taking one for the team is easy if it just means a bit of extra work for you, but I think we all like to be liked at the end of the day. Would you allow someone to think bad of you if it meant others benefited or would you correct that person's understanding so they didn't think bad of you (to the detriment of the others)?

Analysis:
A 50/50 split between those of you that would take the bullet and those that would correct the situation. I guess it totally depends on the situation. Maybe it's just me that I get really bothered if someone doesn't like me for something I didn't do. Now, if it's something I did do, that's a different matter. That then becomes your problem for not liking what I did.
