Here's one that OR staff will appreciate (and it's not even dirty!)
After years of working as a successful Gynecologist, a surgeon decides he's burned out and wants to try an entirely new profession. Since he's always been an automobile buff, he decides to become an auto mechanic. He goes through mechanic's school and eventually takes his final exam which consists of dismantling and then reassembling a car's engine. When he gets his grade for the exam, he is surprised to see that he got 150%.
He goes to the professor and asks how this is possible. The prof replies:
"Well, you took the engine apart perfectly, so I gave you 50% for that. Then you reassembled it perfectly, so you got another 50%. I gave you 50% extra credit because in all of my years of teaching auto mechanics, I NEVER saw anyone do this entirely through the tailpipe!"
Can't wait to tell that one to my favorite Gyn guy next week!
