Not that I really have time for thumb-twiddling…
1. If you had medical insurance that would cover any medical treatment, would you seek additional care for anything?
I’d get preventive treatment for my back/shoulders – massages or kiropractor help or something.
2. For a sizable payment, would you get on TV and personally endorse a product you thought was mediocre?
It would have to be VERY sizeable. Actually, it depends on the product and what I would be required to say about it. If it were, say, a single malt whisky I didn’t particularly care for and I had to stand there and say that it was the finest whisky in the world I don’t think I would. Also, I’m a terrible liar, so there would not be much point in paying me to do so, either…
3. If you were guaranteed a window view, regardless, what floor of a 100-story office building would you want to be on?
Somewhere around the 10th, probably. My patience in waiting for elevators is limited, so I’d want the option of taking the stairs to be viable.
Dito, no way, dito. Besides the elevator thing – remember New York.
I assume New York is what the person asking the question was thinking of, but I don’t see that as a reason to not be on the 100th floor – I refuse to let my life be run by the fear of something like that happening (by the same logic you could never fly again).
Yes, well, I see your point. However, you need to fly to get places. You don’t need the 100th floor.
Ha. Higher floors of high buildings tend to sway in the wind, too.
Hmmm, for the stair point to work, the building would have to be smoke free. I tried walking up to my floor a couple of times BEFORE the building was made smoke free, and believe me, you don’t want to walk more than 3 floors under those conditions.
