You are driving down the road in your car on a wild, stormy night,
when you pass by a bus stop and you see three people waiting for the
bus
1. An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
2. An old friend who once saved your life.
3. The perfect partner you have been dreaming about.
Which one would you choose to offer a
ride to, knowing that there could only
be one passenger in your car?
Think before you continue reading.
This is a moral/ethical dilemma that
was once actually used as part of a job
application. You could pick up the old
lady, because she is going to die, and
thus you should save her first. Or you
could take the old friend because he
once saved your life, and this would
be the perfect chance to pay him back.
However, you may never be able to find your
perfect mate again.
YOU WON'T BELIEVE THIS. (or will you?)......................
The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants)
had no trouble coming up
with his answer. He simply answered: 'I
would give the car keys to my old
friend and let him take the lady to the
hospital. I would stay behind and wait
for the bus with the partner of my
dreams.'
Sometimes, we gain more if we are able
to give up our stubborn thought limitations.
Never forget to 'Think Outside of the Box.'
HOWEVER....,The correct answer is to
run the old lady over and put her out
of her misery because the NHS won't pay
for her hospital care anyway, have sex
with the perfect partner on the bonnet
of the car, then drive off with the old
friend to a pub for a few beers.
God, I just love happy endings!
