A doctor is talking to a mechanic, “Your fee is several times more per hour then we get paid for medical care.” “Yeah, but you see, doc, you have always the same model, it hasn’t change since Adam; but we have to keep up to date with new models coming every month.”

Patient: Why? Doctor, it wasn’t all that bad this time.
Dentist: There are so many people in the waiting room right now, and I don’t want to miss the four o’clock ball game.
