My sister, Lisa, has a fondness for character watches. Some have musical alarms or funny voices. Luckily, in the medical field, you can wear quirky watches or goofy scrubs and no one blinks twice. In fact, both can be great conversation pieces to calm otherwise anxious patients. This story is not reflective of that benefit. A few weeks ago, Lisa decided to wear her Pepe le Pew watch. She was filling in for another MA and so, was working with an attractive, 40-something female physician. A 29 year old male patient was coming in for a hemorrhoid procedure and as a medical assistant, it is Lisa's duty to hold different body parts down or shift them so the physician has an optimal view.
As one might expect, in this case she was to spread the patient's buttocks as he knelt on the exam table, bent over at the waist. The patient was in perfect position and the procedure started. Once it starts, it's imperative that Lisa hold that position. A few minutes in, she was asked to hand the physician an instrument so she carefully removed one hand and reached over her other arm to retrieve it.
As she did, she grazed her watch and must have flicked the sound button. The soothing sounds of Pepe le Pew serenading his lover resonated in the room.
"I'm in the mooood for looooove...simply because you're near meeee. Funny but when you're near meee...I'm in the mood for loooove."
As it was going through the first verse, Lisa very calmy said, "Um, it'll just play one more verse. Sorry about that..."
The patient never showed up for his follow up appointment and hasn't been heard from since.
Well, at least she wasn't wearing her "Deliverance" watch.
ReplyDeleteThat must've been hilarious. Good thing it didn't say Pepe's name. Hearing the "Peu" may have even embarrassed him more! LOL.
ReplyDeleteOh. My. God. Bahahahah! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is AWESOME! Thanks for the laugh!
ReplyDeleteI just love your sister! She's always got a great story. Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThat was funny! I was bracing myself for what I thought would be the inevitable wicked fart, but this is so much funnier! Bravo!
ReplyDeleteoh, a nice early morning laugh. I needed that. Thanks.
ReplyDelete*giggle*
ReplyDeleteHis embarrassment to begin with..bare ass??
ReplyDeleteThat's fantastic.

Very funny, thank you.
ReplyDeleteWhere does she work. Maybe I should to there for my hemorrhoids. I'm not young and handsome though.
Thanks,
That is hysterical!!
ReplyDeleteYou can't make that stuff up!!!
ReplyDelete"Lunches with Lisa" are my favorite segments! What a sister you have! Pépé was one of my fave characters in Bugs Bunny as I was reading your story I kept trying to guess what line of his was going to come out at the bad time! I'm jealous, I have 3 sisters but we all live so far away from each other we don't get to have these kind of experiences from seeing each other regularly! Good post...
ReplyDeletebwhahahahhahahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteOMG...that was BRILLIANT!
Chrissy, I'm totally lovin' these "Lunches with Lisa."
And btw, Pepe le Peu is one of my FAVS!
*chuckle*
ReplyDeleteA "Jaws" watch would have been stellar.

ReplyDeleteThey would have had to pick me up off the floor, I'd be laughing so hard! I've never even heard of talking/singing watches! (Duh)
This was freakin' hysterical!!
OMG that is hilarious. But I'm so glad it wasn't me there as a patient!
