THE GYNECOLOGIST WHO BECAME A MECHANIC
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 evening classes, attended diligently, and
learned all he could.
When the time of 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." 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
