Don't mess with the elderly!!

[hobby]

I guess that as I shall be in 'extra time' next year I am probably one of the oldest forum users.

Earlier this year I felt that a local government receptionist had completely lost the plot when she greeted me at the front desk of one of our local District Council offices with "What d'you want then?"

Strange as it may seem to a lot of public service employees it is members of the general public who, albeit compulsorily, actually provide the money for their salaries. Having worked for 15 years as a senior manager and consultant in an international company I found the following, strictly non-PC, amusing. I would certainly not have had the guts to deliver this elderly gentleman's reply to the receptionist featured below.

This arrived in my email this morning:

SNOOTY RECEPTIONIST


An older gentleman had an appointment to see the urologist who shared offices with several other doctors. The waiting room was filled with patients.

As he approached the receptionist's desk, he noticed that the receptionist was a large unfriendly woman who looked like a Sumo wrestler. He gave her 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?'

All the patients in the waiting room snapped their heads around to look at the very embarrassed man.

He recovered quickly, And in an equally loud voice replied, 'NO, I'VE COME TO INQUIRE ABOUT A SEX CHANGE OPERATION, BUT I DON'T WANT THE SAME DOCTOR THAT DID YOURS.'

DON'T MESS WITH OLD FOLKS!!!!
