Hi all, I recieved this today and thought you may like to see it.

Think about what you would do in this situation before scrolling down to see what the job applicant answered.

BTW....he got the job.

-- Ethical__Moral Question --

====================

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."

But the sad reality is that business has no morality. If i was hiring somebody, id want them to be a bastard, to personal gain and fsk the others. Personaly id probably pick up the chick, its the life savers fault for not thinking of phoning a taxi and getting the lady to hospital. But thats just me.
