An Ethical Dilemma

 Print



  Subject: FW: An Ethical Dilemma - What Would You Do?

    Now this is smart thinking!


   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 man (or) woman 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.  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 his 
answer.  I love this, I may actually use it sometime for an interview 
situation.  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."  Never 
forget to **Think Outside of the  Box!_________________________________________________________________
