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 s*x with the perfect partner against the bus stop, then drive off with the old friend for some beers.

think i would have gone for the old lady. i think the old friend who saved mylife would a. understand as they obviously are the caring sort and b. expect more then a lift home to repay them for saving my life and i already have the partner of my dreams (everybody say awwwwwwww)

You are walking down a beautiful country road. In the distance you see a small baby sparrow lying in the dirt. Both of its wings are broken. You have a Hammer???
Now there is a Moral Dilemma!!!
