What is your view on the below situation?

11:11 AM / Posted by 十八般武艺 /

A & B are buddies. B's dad get into bankruptcy and have difficulties providing for the family. Hence A, whose dad is a connstruction worker, approaches C, an influential and capable person, to ask for favour in getting B's dad, D a job with a pay of RM1.7k(requested by D).

C called up one of his client and recommended D, a total stranger to him, as a diligently committed worker. The client asked for the price and C managed to land D a job with a pay of RM2.5k.

When D came to see C, C told him that he got him RM2.2k for a job, ie. RM500 extra of what he asked for, monthly. He was so touched to the extent his tears broke down thanking C continuously. In a minute, C informed him that he actually got him the job with a pay of RM2.5k, but he want D to give RM300 to A, on monthly basis. To C, A is a very hardworking and willing student, his family is equally financially unsound minus off the bankruptcy bit. At this moment, D's eyes turned evil. C then informed D that he want half a month of his first salary and the RM300 to be given to A on monthly basis. D was angry and left very reluctantly.

Think about it, it is a windfall, isn't it? C already got him RM500 extra per month. I really doubt that D worth such a price to begin with as a bankrupt. C also told A to keep all the credits he asked for from D as deep inside, C knows A needs help himself.

D told B about this, both very unsatisfied upon knowing the truth. B even confronted the C's client accusing A's initial intention was never to help but to earn the RM300out of the so-called favour. Friendship between A & B turned sour since then.

What are friends for? Share money, share sorrow, share joys....or not at all? C's view being, friends come and go, if they don't appreciate you, forget it and move on.

Shouldn't B and D be appreciating the extra they get rather than sulking about the RM300 which at first place doesn't belongs to them since they only asked for RM1.7k?

What's your view? Should C handle the situation this way? or do you think it is never a good thing introducing money factor into friendship?

when he expect something in return for his action.. then i think this not so call 'help' or 'favour'.. it just a business.. he acted as employment agent..
