A gynecologist had a burning desire to become a HVAC technician. So he found out from the local tech college what was involved, signed up for evening classes, attended diligently, and learned all he could. When the time for the practical exam approached, the gynecologist prepared carefully for weeks, and completed the exam with tremendous skill.
When the results cam back, he was suprised to find that he obtained a mark of 150% Fearing an error, he called the instructor, saying " I don't want to appear ungrateful for such an outstanding result, but I wonderd if there had been an error which needed adjusting."
The instructor said, " During the exam you took the furnace apart perfectly, which was worth 50% of the total work. You put the furnace back together again perfectly. which is also worth 50% of the mark. I gave you an extra 50% because you did all of it through the flue!"
