>A big-shot business man had to spend a couple of days in the
>hospital. He was a royal pain to the nurses because he bossed them
>around just like he did his employees. None of the hospital staff wanted
>to have anything to do with him. The head nurse was the only one who
>could stand up to him.
>She came into his room and announced, "I have to take your
>temperature".
>After complaining for several minutes, he finally settled down, crossed
>his arms and opened his mouth.
>I'm sorry, the nurse stated, "but for this reading I can't use an oral
>thermometer."
>This started another round of complaining, but eventually he rolled over
>and bared his behind.
>After feeling the nurse insert the thermometer, he heard her announce,
>"I have to get something. Now you stay JUST LIKE THAT until I get back!"
>She leaves the door to his room open on her way out. He curses under his
>breath as he hears people walking past his door, laughing. After almost
>an hour, the man's doctor comes into the room. "What's going on here?"
>asked the doctor. Angrily, the man answers, "What's the matter, Doc?
>Haven't you ever seen someone having their temperature taken?
>After a pause, the doctor confesses,
>"Not with a carnation."
