“Take Charge” Nurse
A bigshot business
man had to spend a couple of days in the hospital. He
was a royal pain to the nurses because he bossed them around just like he did his
employees. None of the hospital staff wanted to have anything to do with him.
The head nurse was
the only one who could stand up to him. She walked into his room and announced, "I
have to take your temperature."
After complaining for
several minutes, he finally settled down, crossed his arms and opened his mouth.
"No, I'm sorry,
the nurse stated, "but for this reading, I can't use an oral thermometer."
This started another
round of complaining, but eventually he rolled over and bared his behind.
After feeling the
nurse insert the thermometer, he heard her announce, "I have to get something. Now
you stay JUST LIKE THAT until I get back!"
She leaves the door
to his room open on her way out. He curses under his breath as he hears people walking
past his door, laughing. After almost an hour, the man's doctor comes into the
"What's going on
here?" asked the doctor.
Angrily, the man
answers, "What's the matter, Doc? Haven't you ever seen someone having their
temperature taken before?"
After a
pause, the doctor replies, "Yes, but never with a daffodil!"
