You are driving along in your car on a wild, stormy
night. 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 woman 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
dream lover
again.
The candidate who was hired (out of 200 applicants)
had no trouble
coming up with his answer. I love this, I may actually
use it
sometime for an interview situation.
WHAT DID HE SAY?
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 woman of my dreams."
Never forget to "Think Outside of the Box."
