bottleymike Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 A Scotsman phones a dentist to enquire about the cost for a tooth extraction. "£85 for an extraction, sir" the dentist replied. "£85!!! Huv ye no'got anythin' cheaper?" "That's the normal charge," said the dentist . "Whit aboot if ye didnae use any anesthetic?" "That's unusual, sir, but I could do it and knock £15 off". "Whit aboot if ye used one of your dentist trainees and still without an anesthetic?" "I can't guarantee their professionalism and it'll be painful, but the price could drop to £40". "How aboot if ye make it a trainin' session, ave yer student do the extraction with the other students watchin' and learnin'?" It'll be good for the students", mulled the dentist "and it's going to be very traumatic, but I'll charge you $5." "Och, now yer talkin' laddie! It's a deal," said the Scotsman. "Can ye confirm an appointment for the wife next Tuesday then?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
