Ok, here's a another one, slightly different...
If you've heard this one before, don't blurt out an answer.
[hypothetically speaking]
You are driving on a highway one night while the rain is coming down in sheets; the storm has absolutely no intention of letting up, and by the sound of the thunder, it's only rising in intensity. There are 3 people by the side of the road: a very old woman, your best friend, and the love of your life. You only have room enough in your car to carry one passenger...
So who do give a ride to? The old woman runs the chance of dying beause she's really quite frail, your best friend is someone whom you can never just leave out in the rain, and the love of your life will never forgive you for ditching him/her out in the middle of a storm. What is your choice? |
run over the old lady, and put her in the trunk...then make your best friend ride on the roof w/ the love of your life in the passenger seat:D |

Actually, from what I heard, this question was posed to prospective executives in an interview process at Pepsico. The people who answered it 'correctly' were placed in a position that pays 6-figures and benefits. Oh, and I'd imagine all the Pepsi they could ever want. Only 2 out of 180 people interviewed answered it the way Pepsi was looking for.
Slylee, I think you would have been escorted out by security. :stongue: |

put the love of your life on your lap.
your best mate in the passenger seat with the old lady on his lap.
Problem solved. |

| Can you PM me the answer to that one I have a good idea but I don't want to post it up here and run the risk of ruining it for everyone else. |

i can do a two in one combo .. have my friend in the trunk, because a friendship can always be mended easily with presents and hugs .. since you said that the old lady is frail (presuming she is skinny), she can sit on the lap of the love of my life, and we can ride .. no harm done .. if the love of my life complains about it, i make an ultimatum either have the woman sit on her lap, or go in the trunk with my stinky best friend who loves to fart ..
:haha: :haha: |

I'm really quite curious to see what sort of answers you guys can come up with. :haha:
Since this is hypothetical, I can make arbitrary distinctions: there is no trunk of your car - there just isn't room. That one other passenger is all there is room for. |

bad idea .. putting the love of your life on your lap risks the lives of four people in the car, because you do not have good sight of the road on a rainy day. |

| Have your girlfriend drive the old woman back and stay with your best friend out in the rain. Have your girlfriend drive back and pick you up and then drive your girlfriend home, leaving your friend in the rain because he can go himself and deal with it, plus you don't want him putting moves on your girl if they ride back together. Then drop your gf at home and go pick up your friend and take him out for drinks. |

| The LoyL and your Friend probably know each other, so they can keep each other company and walk towards town while you take the lady to teh nearest bus stop. |
