Character Questions:

You see someone getting mugged in the street. You don’t know if the perpetrator is armed, and you have your cell phone with you. What do you do?
I would call the police, help the person who got mugged if they were thrown to the ground after the perpetrator left,then try track where the perp was going.

Your car broke down in your driveway, and you don’t have the slightest idea how to fix it. What would you do?
I would call a mechanic to come help. Maybe David Putty knows!

You’re married with children, and you just got a job offer that gives you a large raise–but you have to move across the country. Everybody is okay with it, except your oldest child who has two years left of school and doesn’t want to move. What do you do?
If the pay rise was worth it, I would move bringing up the option that my oldest could stay and finish school and stay with family, then move back with us when he/she finishes if that's what they wanted. If the pay wasn't worth it, I would sacrifice extra $$$ for the happiness of my family.

Your best friend gets in a fight and kills someone. You weren’t there, but your friend is running from the police and says he/she was defending him/herself. Your friend comes to you for help. What do you do?
I would try and defend them as best I could, possibly hiring a good defence lawyer to help. If my friend was truely innocent, I believe we could work through it and prove it.

You’re in college and you’re failing a class. You can still withdraw without getting a failing grade, but you won’t get your money back. What do you do?
I would try my best to get those grades up, possibly some extra curricular stuff, but I would withdraw if I was definately going to fail. Who cares about the money when you'll loose the money anyway along with a fail also. Then again........How could I be failing? lol

You’re walking with someone you love and hold dear when another person walks near and starts making lewd or insulting remarks toward your loved one. You don’t recognize this person. What do you do?
We would just keep walking by and if they continued, I'd walk up to this person and say "What the hell is your problem?" try to diffuse the situation without resorting to violence, but then again if this guy was just pissing me off, i'd probably take a swing at him.

You and the one you love get into an argument. He/she says that you are hurting their feelings, but you don't think that their having hurt feelings over this makes sense. How do you react?
If my loved one was making a big deal out of nothing, I would sit down with them and talk through things. Otherwise, i'd probably do the same thing. I would change what i was doing to make them feel hurt if I could. Then again, im a nice guy, how could I hurt my loved one's feelings.

Thanks guys, and be sure to check back tomorrow for Monday TechQuestions #12.

So, you hate shallow, bitter, stuck-up people. My job is to work with and hopefully work to change such people. You probably wouldn't like my job.
