Robin’s 2¢:
An older gentleman had an appointment to see a doctor. The waiting room was crowded with patients.
As he approached the check-in desk, he noticed that the receptionist was a rather angry woman of unfortunate appearance—sort of a cross between a pit bull and a Sumo wrestler.
As soon as he had stated his name, the woman cut him off and in a loud voice said, “Yes, yes, I have your file right here. You want to see the doctor about your bladder control problem.”
All the patients in the waiting room snapped their heads around to look at the very embarrassed man.
But he recovered quickly and, in an equally loud voice, replied, “No, I’ve come to get some plastic surgery. I just came up to make sure that I don’t get the same doctor who did yours.”
