Moral Dilemma

Post by Bicycle Bill »

You are driving down the road in your two-seat sports car on a wild and stormy night (with the top up, of course).  You happen to drive past a bus stop where 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 can only be one passenger in your car?

Think before you continue reading!

YOU WON'T BELIEVE THIS... but this is a question that was 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 more than 200 applicants) had no trouble coming up with his answer.  He replied:
"I would give the car keys to my old friend and let him take the elderly lady to the hospital, and I would stay behind and wait for the bus with the partner of my dreams."

You will find that we gain more when we are able to give up our stubborn thought limitations.
:idea:  Never forget to "Think Outside the Box".....

HOWEVER... that was then, this is now.  The correct answer today would be to run the old lady over and put her out of her misery because Trump's health care proposal won't pay for her hospital visit anyway; have sex with the perfect partner on the hood of the car; and then drive off with the old friend for a few beers.  :ok

God, I just love happy endings!  :lol:

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

Since the old lady looks like she is about to die, I'd leave her there with the friend who has already proven he can save lives.

I'd let the dog into my car and bring it home and hope it gets along with my cat.

A teenager who was asked during a TGI Fridays interview in he would 'rather watch his parents have sex for a year or join in just for the start' has now been named.

Daniel Dougherty, from Derby, was left 'gobsmacked' after being asked the question and others, including: 'Would you rather s*** a brick or cry glass?'
The 18-year-old had been at the interview event on Sunday with several other job seekers where they had participated in several challenges like balloon making.

First, you take the rabbit....
For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts
