Trader Posted December 4, 2010 Posted December 4, 2010 The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked, "So Doc, look at this engine. I open its' heart, take the valves out, repair any damage, and then put them back in, and when I finish, it works just like new. So how come I make $40 k a year and you get the really big bucks when you and I are doing basically the same work?" The cardiologist paused, smiled , leaned over, and said.........."Try doing it with the engine running."

saddlebum Posted December 5, 2010 Posted December 5, 2010 Yeh but a doctor gets to bury his mistakes, and a mechanic has to fix his no matter what
kj4v Posted December 5, 2010 Posted December 5, 2010 Funny story, I went out to unlock a Dodge ram Pick up for a Dentist one evening and the whole job took less then a minute after I started. He ask what the charge was and I said $50.00. He said wow I Don't make that kind of money and my reply was "I didn't either when I was a Dentist" we both had a good laugh and went on our way.
1 Canuck Posted December 5, 2010 Posted December 5, 2010 Yeh but a doctor gets to bury his mistakes, and a mechanic has to fix his no matter what LOL...How true! Underpaid mechanic. Isn't that an oxymoron?
eazyduzzit Posted December 5, 2010 Posted December 5, 2010 He ask what the charge was and I said $50.00. He said wow I Don't make that kind of money It may have taken less than a minute to unlock his door, but you had to go where he was. I'll bet if he came out to you and fixed a tooth, even if it took less than a minute, it would be more like $500.
