They always ask at the doctor's office why you are there, and you have to answer in front of others and sometimes it is very embarrassing.

There's nothing worse than a doctor's receptionist who insists you tell her what is wrong with you in a room full of other patients.

I know most of us have experienced this in some form or other, and I love the way this old guy 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 Dr. Smith for today?"

“There's something wrong with my willy,” 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,” the old man said.

The receptionist replied: “Now 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 Dr. Smith 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.

Nodding approvingly, the receptionist 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.

The moral of the story? Mess with seniors and you're gonna lose.
