The Harleyologist

March 28th, 2007

A mechanic was removing a cylinder-head from the engine of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle when he spotted a well-known cardiologist in his shop. The cardiologist was there waiting for the service manager to come take a look at his bike when the mechanic shouted across the garage, “Hey Doc, want to take a look at this?”

The cardiologist, a bit surprised, walked over to where the mechanic was working on the motorcycle. The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked, “So Doc, look at this engine. I open its heart, take the valves out, repair any damage, and then put them back in, and when I finish, it works just like new. So how come I make $39,000 a year and you make $300,000 a year when you and I are doing basically the same work?”

The cardiologist paused, smiled and leaned over, then whispered to the mechanic… “Try doing it with the engine running.”
