Decision"
A company was hiring new staff. One question in
the written exam was:
You are driving your car in a wild stormy night. You
pass by a bus station, and you see three people
waiting for the bus:
An old lady who looks as if she is about to die.
A doctor who had once saved your life.
A man/woman you have been dreaming to be with.
You can only take one passenger in your car. Which
one will you choose?
Please explain your answer.
Think about it before you continue reading.
This must be some kind of personality test. Every
answer has its reasoning.
You could pick up the old lady. She is going to die,
and thus you should save her first. You could take
the doctor, because he once saved your life. This
will be the perfect chance to pay him back. However,
you could always pay the doctor back in the future,
but you may never be able to find the perfect lover
once you pass this chance.
The candidate who was eventually hired (out of 200
applicants) did not have to explain his answer.
WHAT DID HE SAY?
He simply answered: "Give the car key to the doctor.
Let him take the old lady to the hospital. I will
stay and wait for the bus with the man/woman of
my dreams."
Sometimes, we would gain more if we were able to
give up our stubborn limitations.
