How to Become an Auto Mechanic – Joke

Austin-1, January 30, 2009

Got this joke sent to me…thought it was cute, so I wanted to share

Gynecologist who became a mechanic

A Gynecologist had become fed up with malpractice insurance
and Medicare paperwork, and was burned out. Hoping to try
another career where skilful hands would be beneficial, he
decided to become a mechanic. He went to the local
technical college, signed up for evening classes, attended
diligently, and learned all he could.

When the time of the practical exam approached, the
Gynecologist prepared carefully for weeks, and completed the
exam with tremendous skill. When the results came back, he
was surprised to find that he had obtained a score of 150%.

Fearing an error, he called the Instructor, saying, ‘I
don’t want to appear ungrateful for such an outstanding
result, but I wonder if there is an error in my grade.’
The instructor said, ‘During the exam, you took the
engine apart perfectly, which was worth 50% of the total
mark.

You put the engine back together again perfectly,
which is also worth 50% of the mark.’ After a pause,
the instructor added, ‘I gave you an extra 50% because
you did it all through the muffler.’
