There's nothing worse than a snotty doctor's receptionist
who insists you tell her what is wrong in a room full of
other patients. I know you all have experienced this, and
here's the way one old guy handled it....
An 86-year-old man walked into a crowded doctor's
office. As he approached the desk, the receptionist said, "Yes
Sir, what are you seeing the doctor for today?"
"There's something wrong with my -----," he replied.
The receptionist became irritated and said, "You shouldn't come
into a crowded office and say things like that."
"Why not? You asked me what was wrong and I told you," he said.
The receptionist replied, "You've obviously caused some
embarrassment in this room full of people. You should have said there
is something wrong with your ear or something and then discussed the
problem further with the doctor in private."
The man walked out, waited several minutes and then reentered.
The receptionist smiled smugly and asked, "Yes?"
There's something wrong with my ear," he stated.
The receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled, knowing he had taken
her advice. "And what is wrong with your ear, Sir?"
"I can't piss out of it," the man replied.
