Moral Dilemma

Moral Dilemma

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.





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. God, I just love happy
endings. Don't You??
