The doctor really wanted to go fishing, but he didn't want to lose any income.
Therefore he asked his warden, a not too bright fellow, if he could not be there the next day, dismiss the heaviest cases and try his hand at the simple ones. This was the agreement. Two days later the doctor returned and asked: - How many patients did you treat?
- "Three", answered the proud caretaker. - "The... first one had a headache and was given paracetamol".
- "Brilliant", answered the doctor.
- "the other one had a chip, which I pulled out with tweezers.
- "Good, good"!
- "The third was a lovely young lady, who came running into the office, tore off all her clothes and shouted. You have to take care of me, I haven't seen a man in two years!"
- "Good God! What did you do with her"?
- "She got eye drops".
