THE PARACHUTE PARADIGM
You are one of two people on a malfunctioning airplane with only one parachute.

Pessimist: you refuse the parachute because you might die in the jump anyway.

Lawyer: you charge one parachute for helping them sue the airline.

Separatist: you refuse to use the parachute unless the instructions are in French.

Mathematician: you refuse to accept the parachute without proof that it will work in all cases.

Surgeon General: you issue a warning that skydiving can be hazardous to your health.
