Neurosurgeon: "Ah shit. I really needed some, too."
Neurologist: "I don't think they come in on weekends to fix it, either."
Pulmonologist: "They don't. We're fucked."
Cardiologist: "Maybe we can do something..." (Opens front of machine).
Neurologist: "Wow, what a mess."
Neurosurgeon: "I think this thing that fell over holds the used grounds."
Neurologist: "Yeah." (dumps grounds in trash, rinses holder in sink, puts it back in machine).
Nothing happens.
Pulmonologist: "It's still not working."
Neurosurgeon: "Let me see... Here, look. The part that feeds the filter paper roll got doubled up and twisted. It's stuck."
Neurologist: "Hang on..." (pulls out filter paper roll) "Ah, okay, looks like it wasn't put in correctly. Let me turn it around and toss the jammed paper."
Machine starts gurgling.
Pulmonologist: "It's working! Yay! Coffee!"
(All get coffee)
Cardiologist: "That's amazing."
Neurosurgeon: "The coffee gadget?"
Cardiologist: "No. For the first time in medical history it was a neurosurgeon who made the correct diagnosis, and a neurologist who fixed it."
The pulmonologist blew her coffee all over the bagels.

That joke kills.
This just made my week.
I'm glad I didn't have a mouthful of coffee when I read that :-)
OY.
OY.
I'm with ThorMD!!!
Our civilization is not doomed.
And that's why doctors need to stay the fuck outta my computers.
One of the places where I lived out my computer career had a big (BIG) printer designed for heavy-duty printing almost 24x7. It was a fussy bastard that had to be kept in a humidity-controlled room or it would get paper jams near constantly. Despite that, it still jammed from time to time, and people used to dealing with little desktop injket machines would "try" to fix it, usually making things worse.
The hardware department cured that by putting up a sign that said, "If you can fix this as well as we can, call us. We're hiring."
I really thought that they would go and ask a nurse to fix it for them..isn't that how it usually works??!!
Man; your cardiologists are harsh, and yet I giggled like a little schoolgirl when I read this.
Moose, it sounds like they did the right thing with the sign. Most paper jams are things that the average reasonably competent computer user can deal with. It's usually much faster to just deal with the jam than get the IT guy to come fix it. If you've got something that the average guy can't clear a paper jam a warning is a good idea.
And was the neurologist involved, the famous Dr. Grumpy?
This is one of the funniest things I've ever read, although I guess you'd have to be medical to appreciate it.
Every once in awhile, the Yak Herder trumps all. And makes us ROFL in the process. Thanks!
*LOLROFLMBO*
Bwahhahahaha!!!! Go Neurologists! First thing that's made me smile all week :)
My dad was an OBGYN and he could fix things, but only because *his* dad was a tradesman.
