READ CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU PROCEED TO ANSWERING (had to make it bold for the benefit of those who don't really read) I just remembered this story back when I was training call center agents and trying to assess their personalities. SO read the story first before you choose any answer okay? and as soon as i probably have 20 to 30 responses or until sunday, i'll be posting what your answers mean oks? ok here goes Two goats meet at a bridge. There is a very narrow bridge over a river. One day a goat that was crossing this bridge met another goat just in the MIDDLE. There was no room for both of them to pass. Which of the following can yo imagine as the most likely scenario? A. One goat willingly turned back to let the other goat pass first B. The 2 goats charge at each other, and after a few rounds of confrontation, the stronger goat forced the loser to yield C. One goat lay down on the bridge and the other goat walked lightly over him D. The 2 goats charged against each other and both fell off the bridge and into the deep river below E. One goat retraced its way and waited for the other goat to come over; then, instead of going over to the other side, it stayed to play and graze with its new friend choose 1 and then i'll let you know afterwards what it means :D

hi chipesterkhan I would always choose E as I like people trying to compromise with each other and I have seen animals do just this so it is a possibility. Probably it means I am a total wuss but know what I like my self that way.I am according to my adult son a total wuss. I do not like confrontations and will do a lot to keep the peace.

Is this some kind of a personality test, nice. I would pick E, for me time is not wasted in meeting somebody, cause that somebody might turn out to be someone important in your life. :) And having a new friend is always a treat for me. I just hope that other goat is a kind soul as well. :)

Well since i can't see one goat letting the other goat just walk all over it or one turning back then just forgetting about the whole bridge crossing mission and stayingto play with it's new goat friend. I would have to choose D. But it all depends on what the goats personalities are.lol i sound like a goat whisperer
