Gynecologist finds a new career
A gynecologist had become fed up with malpractice insurance and HMO
paperwork and was burned out. Hoping to try another career where skillful
hands would be beneficial, he decided to become a mechanic. He went to the
local technical college, signed up for classes, attended diligently, and
learned all he could. When the time for the practical exam approached, the
gynecologist prepared carefully for weeks and completed the exam with
tremendous skill.
When the results came back, he was surprised to find that he had obtained a
score of 150%. Fearing an error, he called the instructor, saying, "I don't
want to appear ungrateful for such an outstanding result, but I wonder if
there is an error in the grade."
The instructor said, "During the exam, you took the engine apart perfectly,
which was worth 50% of the total mark. You put the engine back together
again perfectly, which is also worth 50% of the mark. This equaled an A."
After a pause, the instructor added, "I gave you an extra 50% because you
did it all through the muffler, which I've never seen done in my entire
career."
