You are driving along 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.

The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming

up

with his answer.what was it?

I think the friend could give the old lady a lift in your car, and you could get the bus with the perfect partner.

I think the answer is all 3. Make 3 trips - take the nice chap on the last one!

I would pick No.3, The perfect partner you have been dreaming about :huggles: lol

or your to busy watching the partner of your dreams that your car mounts the pavement and you kill all 3

youre the one in 200!congrats! :cheers: (you didnt google it did you?) :lol:

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 against the bus stop, then

drive off with the old friend for some beers. o
