THE GYNECOLOGIST WHO BECAME A MECHANIC

imageA gynecologist had become fed up with malpractice insurance and HMO
paperwork, and was burned out.  Hoping to try another career where
skillful hands would be beneficial, he decided to become a  mechanic.
 

He went to the local technical college, signed up for evening classes,
attended diligently, and learned all he could.  When the time of the
practical exam approached, the gynecologist prepared carefully for
weeks, and completed the exam with tremendous skill. When the results came
back, he was surprised to find that he had obtained a score of 150%.

Fearing an error, he called the Instructor, saying, "I don't want to appear ungrateful for such an outstanding result, but I wonder if there is an error in the grade?"   "The instructor said, "During the exam,you took the engine apart perfectly, which was worth 50% of the total mark. You put the engine back together again perfectly, which is also worth 50%of the mark."  

   After a pause, the instructor added, "I gave you an extra 50% because you did it all through the muffler,which I've never seen done in my entire career".

  2. I guess as a Gynecholgist the legacy skill of being able to do work via the birth canal kicked in so the Muffler approach was taken. It would seem however he was not frustrated with javascript:void(0)the 150% grade
