[SOC] (no subject)

[Lloyd Lachow]

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 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 dream lover again. The candidate who was hired
(out of 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with
an answer.


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."

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, shag the 
perfect partner against the bus stop and drive off 
with the old friend for some beer.
