I once tried to bribe a PC technician in Best Buy. My PC was infected with virus, So I brought it to Best Buy Gig Squad to check it up. The technician on duty told me that I can come back in 2 days. I told him that I need it today, but he has too much work order piling up too. So, I told him that if I gonna give him $25 extra, would he do me that favor. He accepted, and I got PC back the same day 2 hours later. Have you ever bribed any one?

Hello,clorissa! Giving or accepting bribe is a crime.However it is practiced everywhere.Now a days most of the employees demand bribe to help you on some matter and if you don't pay they would not attend to your work.So people pay the employees and get their work done soon.However neither I have accepted nor given bribe to anybody in my life.thanx

I think bribes work but it can be expensive and when we make a habit of it the other person is going to expect it of everyone else and he can get in trouble eventually. My wife does it all the time and she gets things done more quickly than I. Cheers!!

I dont really see that as bribing but if you call it bribing then i have bribed. Its just the same as sending a letter. you pay more for next day delivery more for same day delivery. you pay for what you get.

Does bribing your kids count? I tend to bribe them to behave and to get better grades in school. The reward system works wonders on them because they always seem to want more toys and games.
