How to Handle Ear Infections

They always ask at the doctor’s office why you are there and you have to answer in front of others what’s wrong.  Sometimes it is embarrassing. There’s nothing worse than a receptionist who insists you tell her what is wrong with you in a room full of other patients.

Most of us have experienced this, and we thought it would be prudent to share how an elderly farmer handled it. An 86-year-old man walked into a crowded waiting room and approached the desk…. The receptionist said, ‘Yes sir, what are you seeing the doctor for today?‘

‘There’s something wrong with my d!ck,‘ he replied.

The receptionist became irritated and said, ‘You shouldn’t come into a crowded waiting room and say things like that.‘

‘Why not? You asked me what was wrong and I told you,‘ he said.

The receptionist replied, ‘You’ve caused some embarrassment in this room full of people. You should have said there is something wrong with your ear or something and discussed the problem further with the doctor in private.‘
The man replied, ‘You shouldn’t ask people questions in a room full of strangers if the answer could embarrass anyone.
The man walked out, waited several minutes, and then re-entered.

The receptionist smiled smugly and asked, ‘Yes?‘

‘There’s something wrong with my ear,‘ he stated.

The receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled, knowing he had taken her advice.

‘And what is wrong with your ear, sir?‘ 

‘I can’t p!ss out of it,‘ he replied.

The waiting room erupted in laughter.
