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.
 
  I just love happy endings!

woa!!!

that 'correct' answer sounds like a disaster. OK, so the old lady might be about to die, and she may have lioved a goodly and long life, and therefore even if taken to hospital may not have much of a future - BUT, to kill her sounds rather extreme


That man's solution sounds like a wise althernative option - I must admit that I would never have thought of it myself.

The giving up of personal property is sort of the opposite to what our society teaches us. That said, he would have gained the love of his life, and possibly been able to replace the car.
