MORAL DILEMMA
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...
think about it
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. 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.
