Why does not Anil hand the thief over to the police? Do you think most people would have done so? In what ways is Anil different from such employers?
Anil does not hand the thief over to the police because he is an extremely trusting and forgiving person. When he discovers the theft, his face shows only a touch of sadness, not for the loss of money, but for the loss of trust. He believes in giving the boy a chance to reform rather than punishing him.
Yes, most people would have handed the thief over to the police. As the thief notes, a greedy man shows fear when robbed, a rich man shows anger, and a poor man shows acceptance. Most employers would react with anger and seek legal action to punish the culprit.
Anil is different from such employers because he is the most trusting person the thief had ever met. He gave the thief a key to the door and allowed him to come and go as he pleased. Moreover, Anil is careless with his money; he borrows one week, lends the next, and celebrates when he gets paid. He values trust over money, unlike others who react with fear or anger.
Explanation
The answer is constructed using only the provided text. Anil's reaction is contrasted with the typical reactions of greedy, rich, and poor men. His trusting nature (giving the key) and careless attitude towards money highlight his uniqueness compared to ordinary employers who would react with anger or fear.
