Hey guys Read on .. i got the last One!! this is kewl!
Management people - this is a good one to keep in mind. A question for you
to ponder. This question was asked during an interview session by a reputed
company. Its management decided to employ the person who answered this
question most appropriately.
There was of course no right or wrong in the answer but it all depended on
how each individual answered it.
On a dark & stormy night where rain was pouring heavily, wind was blowing
wildly, lightening striking & thunder was sounding loudly........ It was 2
A.M. late in the night. You were driving a 2-seater car by yourself on a
very lonely stretch of the countryside with this terrible storm when you
came to a sheltered bus stopThere were 3 people in the bus stop......
One was a doctor who saved your life previously when you had a heart attack.
Another was an extremely sick old man who seemed like on the verge of death
while the 3rd is the dream of your life, someone whom you always wanted to
get to know for a long time!
The stormy weather was getting worse & the 3 people in the sheltered bus
stop were getting wet from the heavy rain. Lightening continued to strike &
thunderroared.......
The question is : What would you do in a situation like this?
Remember..... you have only a 2-seater car & will not be able to ferry all
the 3 people inyour car to a more sheltered place.Sowhat will you do?
Ponder over this situation & think of an answer before you scroll down for
the supposedly 'best' answer!******************************************* **

These are some standard answers given by some of the interviewees :
A. "I will drive the sick old man to the nearest
hospital since he's dying soon....."
B. "Since the doctor saved my life before, I'll drive him........."
C. "Morally, I'll drive the old man since he's on the verge of death or the
doctor since he saved my life before. However, for my own welfare & future,
I might just drive the dream of my life!"
D. "It must be fate for me to meet the dream of my life. I'll drive him!"
There are no right or wrong to the above answers, only how the individual
perceives the situation.
Most of the applicants said they'll drive the old man then followed by the
doctor. Several say since the old man's dying & they might not be able to
save him by the time he reach the hospital, they might as well drive the
dream of their life and secure their future?!!
So, what was the answer that impressed the interviewer so much?***************

This particular person said "I'll get down my car, pass the car key to the
doctor to drive the old man to the hospital so he might be able to save him
just like he saved me. Then I'll be able to be with the dream of my life
together in the sheltered bus stop."
With this answer, that person got the job immediately. As human beings, we
are naturally selfish. From all the other answers given, none of them
actually thought of giving up their car....... It is not
something wrong but at times, our thoughts are too narrow minded & we think
mainly for ourselves.
