Confessions - Crazy real life situations
published: Saturday | May 24, 2008

  • You're walking with a friend and meet a supposedly 'long-time' acquaintance whose name you don't remember. Do you:

    A. Try to ignore the obvious need to introduce each other and carry on talking as if you don't realise. (20 per cent)

    B. Ask the person's name and apologise for having bad memory. (33 per cent)

    C. Playfully suggest that you reintroduce yourselves. (47 per cent)

  • You are in a small meeting and you audibly pass gas. Do you:

    A. Pretend nothing happened and continue laughing, even though the whole room heard. (33 per cent)

    B. Look quizzically at another person as if to accuse them of the deed. (27 per cent)

    C. Say excuse me politely and try to ease comfortably back into conversation. (40 per cent)

  • You're having dinner at a restaurant with your boss and invited a close friend who begins chewing his bones - aggressively. Do you:

    A. Make a joke of it and laugh it off, pretending it's comical. (27 per cent)

    B. Excuse yourself from the table and send him a text insisting that he stops. (53 per cent)

    C. Apologise to your boss after dinner for your friend's unacceptable behaviour. (20 per cent)

  • You're about to answer the question 'why should we hire you?' in a job interview and have a very sudden desire to use the bathroom and you must go!

    A. Do you ask to go to the bathroom, even though it may be interpreted as your way to try to think up an answer. (13 per cent)

    B. Sit there, concentrate as hard as you can and brace your stomach while trying to work up an answer. (67 per cent)

    C. Explain politely that you are down with a terrible stomach bug and you must excuse yourself immediately. (20 per cent)
