Pretty good one:
Subject: A moral Test
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 small 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 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.
