The Chinese Doctor & The Lawyer
A Chinese Doctor can’t find a job in a Hospital in the US, so he opens his own clinic and puts a sign outside
‘GET TREATMENT FOR $20 – IF NOT CURED GET BACK $100.’
An American lawyer thinks this is a great opportunity to earn $100 and goes to the clinic.
Lawyer: ‘I have lost my sense of taste.’
Chinese: ‘Nurse, bring medicine from box No. 22 and put 3 drops in patient’s mouth.’
Lawyer: ‘Ugh. this is kerosene.’
Chinese: ‘Congrats, your sense of taste is restored. Give me $20.’
The annoyed lawyer goes back after a few days to recover his money.
Lawyer: ‘I have lost my memory. I cannot remember anything.’
Chinese: ‘Nurse, bring medicine from box no. 22 and put 3 drops in his mouth.’
Lawyer (annoyed): ‘This is kerosene. You gave this to me last time for restoring my taste.’
Chinese: ‘Congrats. You got your memory back. Give me $20.’
The fuming lawyer pays him, and then comes back a week later determined to get back $100.
Lawyer: ‘My eyesight has become very weak I can’t see at all.’
Chinese: ‘Well, I don’t have any medicine for that, so take this $100.’
Lawyer (staring at the note): ‘But this is $20, not $100!!’
Chinese: ‘Congrats, your eyesight is restored. Give me $20’

All the organs of the body were having a meeting, trying to decide who was the one in charge.
“I should be in charge,” said the brain, “Because I run all the body’s systems, so without me nothing would happen.”
“I should be in charge,” said the blood, “Because I circulate oxygen all over so without me you’d all waste away.”
“I should be in charge,” said the stomach,” Because I process food and give all of you energy.”
“I should be in charge,” said the legs, “because I carry the body wherever it needs to go.”
“I should be in charge,” said the eyes, “Because I allow the body to see where it goes.”
“I should be in charge,” said the rectum, “Because I’m responsible for waste removal.”
All the other body parts laughed at the rectum and insulted him, so in a huff, he shut down tight.
Within a few days, the brain had a terrible headache, the stomach was bloated, the legs got wobbly, the eyes got watery, and the blood was toxic. They all decided that the rectum should be the boss.
The moral of the story? Even though the others do all the work… the @$$hole is usually in charge.
