Who Would You Choose?

I just recalled a story someone told me a long time ago .

Actually, it was more of a test than a story as several companies (allegedly) pose this question to job applicants as a test of character.

It goes something like this:



You are riding your motorbike down a remote mountain road one day when clouds begin to loom overhead and droplets start to fall.

The nearest town either way is a long way off but you come up to a bus stop where you can park your motorbike and put on a rain jacket.

Strangely, you find 3 very important people sitting at the bus stop, sheltering from the rain: your mother, your best friend and the love of your life.

Here's the question.

Since you have a motorbike, you can only carry ONE person with you.

Now, WHO would you choose to take with you?

When you have your answer, scroll down.































It turned out that the applicant who got the job said he would give the bike to his best friend so that he could take his mother with him back to the nearest town while he himself would wait out the rain with the love of his life.
