I'm trying to draw a comparison somehow. Let's say that your son has always
wanted to go to the Daytona 500. He's been with you to a number of other

on a business deal with a large firm and your boss gives you tickets to the
race - with the stipulation that you take someone from the firm you are
dealing with.
Do you go?
