A big shot attorney had to spend a couple of days in the hospital. He<br />> was a royal pain to the nurses because he bossed them around just like<br />> he did his staff.<br />> <br />> None of the hospital staff wanted to have anything to do with him. The<br />> head nurse was the only one who could stand up to him. She came into<br />> his room and announced, "I have to take your temperature."<br />> <br />> After complaining for several minutes, he finally settled down, crossed<br />> his arms and opened his mouth.<br />> <br />> "No, I'm sorry, the nurse stated, "but for this reading, I can't use an<br />> oral thermometer." This started another round of complaining, but<br />> eventually he rolled over and bared his behind.<br />> <br />> After feeling the nurse insert the thermometer, he heard her announce,<br />> "I have to get something. Now you stay JUST LIKE THAT until I get back!"<br />> <br />> She leaves the door to his room open on her way out. He curses under his<br />> breath as he hears people walking past his door, laughing. After a half<br />> hour, the man's doctor comes into the room.<br />> <br />> "What's going on here?" asked the doctor.<br />> <br />> Angrily, the man answers, "What's the matter, Doc? Haven't you ever seen<br />> someone having their temperature taken?"<br />> <br />> After a pause, the doctor confesses, "Not with a carnation."<br />
