Willett: Lopez and Simmons, a married couple, have both been offered jobs at Evritech Corporation  Because Evritech has a rule against hiring more than one member of the same family, Lopez and Simmons have decided to reveal their marriage to Evritech  Their decision is foolish, however, since it will mean that one of them will have a job offer withdrawn
After all, they could easily keep their marriage secret initially and, if they want, later claim to have married after they were hired: Evritech has no policy of terminating one of two employees who marry each other
Evritech Corporation is not likely to discover the marital status of Lopez and Simmons if they do not volunteer the information
