Easy To Operate On

Poza publicata in [ Lawyer ]

Four surgeons were taking a coffee break and were discussing their work.


The first said, I think accountants are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is numbered.


The second said, I think librarians are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is in alphabetical order.


The third said, I like to operate on electricians. You open them up and everything inside is color-coded.


The fourth one said, I like to operate on lawyers. Theyre heartless, spineless, gutless, and their head and their butt are interchangeable.
