Bcbp

Some members of the Brotherhood of Christian Businessmen and Professionals chapter in our city are trying to recruit me and my parents to join their organization.

As most of us probably know, this is the group whose motto starts with Be honest even if others are not...

My parents want to join and have already attended three or four of their Sunday breakfast meetings(?)

Personally, I have this pet peeve about hypocrites, you see, a BCBP member here still practices dishonest methods in his business dealings and another member who is an LTO employee still collects tong from motorists notwithstanding their organization's motto. When I asked the member who has been actively recruiting me about this, he said its okay to them since the members in question have minimized their dishonest habits, when I asked for further clarification, he answered:

"Yung LTO employee, before siya naging member, 500 pesos yung hinihingi niya ngayon 250 na lang, yung businessman half kilo na lang binabawas bawat sako sa halip na isang kilo noong hindi pa siya member."

I decided not to join.
