Why I can't be a doctor

[giza]

From an office conversation earlier today:

Me: I just realized why I can't be a doctor!

Co-worker M: I can think of a thousand reasons why you shoudln't be a doctor. Go ahead and tell me yours.

Me: I keep getting the names of my medications confused. I could just see a patient coming in with a stuffed nose and me prescribing cocaine. That would NOT go over well.

Co-worker M: Yep.

Me: Then there was that time I wanted to remove my prostate gland with a power drill.

Co-worker M: *eyes bug out* Uh... yeah. I'm going to get back to work now.

If a patient had a sore throat, you could theoretically prescribe a cocaine spray for the throat. :)

Look up transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), a fairly common procedure for benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH). :)

The page I found says that I'd have to avoid sexual activity for 6 whole weeks. o.O

I understand that movies of guys getting their prostates drilled do quite well on VOD sites. ;)

drillmyass.com? Damn, it's already squatted.
