Yet another place in FIRST where we have a chance to experiance the real world. Here we are able to see that not everyone plays by the rules and yes it may work to their advantage. You can most certainly win while playing against teams who do this even though it may be harder to do. You need to decide whether you'd rather take the easy win, or show the world what you made of- win or lose. It all is a question of your priorities-we all know those of FIRST.
Maybe we can really change the culture, show our businesses and world leaders the meaning of integrity,quality, and gracious professionalism.
Where do your priorities lie?
