Doctors offices can be quite annoying. You've often got a long wait and many times the reception desk personnel are as sensitive as a rock.
Take for example this older gentleman who, last week, had an appointment to see the urologist. Here in Manahawkin there are doctors with different specialties sharing an office, and practicing as a "group".
This well dressed man walked in and as usual the waiting room was filled with patients. 
As he approached the reception desk, he noticed that the receptionist appeared to be an unfriendly woman who looked like a Sumo wrestler.
He did his best to put on a smile...he knew the drill, he handed her his insurance card and gave his name. 
In a very loud voice, the receptionist said,
"YES, I HAVE YOUR NAME HERE, YOU WANT TO SEE THE DOCTOR ABOUT IMPOTENCE, RIGHT?"
Of course all the patients in the waiting room snapped their heads around to look.
This elderly man was very embarrassed.
He was quick though, in an equally loud voice he replied,
"NO, I’VE COME TO INQUIRE ABOUT A SEX CHANGE OPERATION, BUT I DON’T WANT THE SAME DOCTOR WHO DID YOURS."
It's Monday, smile (and speak softly!)
