A smile in the hospital

[Steve Maskery]

This morning I had an outpatients appointment at my local eye department. All is well.

Whilst waiting to see the consultant, a young woman came in with her parents. All three were gigantic, not very clean and, my guess is, not very well educated. I sound very snobbish, don't I? Well perhaps I am, but that was the picture anyway. Workzone rather than Lie-Neilsen.

This young lady was loud, the whole waiting area could hear her and she proceeded to read the titles of various photographs of eye conditions that were hung on the waiting room wall.

She went along the row one at a time:
Glaucoma
Uveitis (which she pronounced "Uneven")
Cornea Graft Rejection ("Cornea Graft Erection")
V
Several of us tried hard not to snigger.
V
a couple more
V
V
"Mr Maskery, please"
V

I got up and moved toward the consulting room, to hear, behind me, the young lady reach Macular Degeneration.

I heard "Masculine Ejac ----" just as I closed the door behind me.

I jest not.

Not good to make fun at people larger then you unless you are very quick on your feet. Exit stage left....

 

[Steve Maskery]

True, G1, true, but there comes a point where larger is much, much, slower!

Roy,
I am in total agreement. I taught in a "Tech School" here in OZ and one statement by a parent made me smile. "My kid goes to this school 'cause he's not a great thinker but he's good with his hands."

As not one trade teacher had made even the faintest congratulatory comment on his trade skills, I did wonder just what his hands were good at.
