Answer to the Previous Post
The right answer is that " I would give my car to my friend, and ask him to drive the old lady...I would stay with the girl of my dreams and try my chances..."
Well...as we were told, out of the 300 participants inthe interview, only one got the right answer, and ofcourse got the job.
Having said that, it was amazing that almost 20 guys,and about 25 ladies replied (half of whom via an email list dedicated to graduate students (Masters, PhD). All guys, with exception of only one replied with the right answer. Regretfully, all girls responded with wrong answers, with most of them suggesting that the old lady comes first in thepriority list.
I came to the conclusion, that ladies not only see theworld out of "beautifying" magnifier, but also they show that emotions still out power strategy! I am sure if I had changed the subject with a girl driving the car, a girlfriend, an old man, and a "man" of dreams (if such thing exists!!!!) they would still not suggest openly that they some how try to get hooked up with the fabulous guy! Some may even argue that their man of dreams (if any!!) would not be waiting in a bus stop freezing to death (just kidding)!!
On the other hand, guys show that no matter what, theydo not give up on opportunities, and they are ready to risk their loved ones (their car, in this case), for a probabilistically unknown chance of wining!
