Employment
Question
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...................
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,
have sex with the perfect partner on the hood of the car,
then
drive off with the old friend for a few beers.
