Moral Dilema
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 a nd 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.."
