Jack works in a clothing store at the mall. He is paid on commission, so the more he sells the more money he makes. When a custo
mer asks Jack if he/she looks good in an item of clothing Jack always says yes, even if he/she does not look good. Jack reasons, I make people feel good when I lie, so it is good. What philosophy does Jack seem to be following?
Jack reason follows the philosophy of egoism where he is always trying to act for his own benefits (commission). Jack acts humbly, and pay attention to his customers because it is in his best interests to make them like him, the cloth(es) and buy his clothing item(s). Jack is actually after his self interest.
