Laughter In the Workplace

Our patient needed  some minor in-office surgery
This is a true story, can't sue me for perjury
Our new Dr M asked us the room to prepare
The next thing that happened is true, I swear.
The patient is ready, scared, and holding my hand
When in walked the Dr, its not we'd planned!
Wearing coveralls that had bold words on the front
BOB'S AUTO REPAIR ,what as asinine stunt!
The Doc is laughing, he thinks it' a grand joke
The patient, alarmed, had started to choke.
With great  authority to the Dr I  said..
"Go chance your clothes" as I'm seeing red
He meekly turned and slunk out the door
And BOB'S AUTO REPAIR was seen no more...,..


A true story.......
More than 10 lines so it won't be accepted for the contest..but I wanted to share it anyway..
 Boy, do I have Dr stories    lol

:) I do appreciate the laugh, LNC. If the doctor I see Monday is dressed this way, I guess I have no choice but to let him have a shot at me anyway. Do you know how many calls it took to get that appointment? If you could shorten this up and spellcheck, it would make a great entry. Even still, it got me laughing! Thanks, dear! Love, Carolyn
