 I was just reminded of when I was working for a synagogue and the rabbi asked me to steal a book by photocopying the entire 300 or so pages for him, rather than purchase a copy, which I instead sourced for him, gave him info on copyright law, told him I thought it was an unethical ask, and though was expensive, he had a budget for in his expenses. I was placed in a terrible position to call out the rabbi & refuse the work.
He should never have asked me to do something he knew was wrong.
