	A marvellous answer A mechanic was removing the cylinder heads from the motor of a car when he spotted the famous heart surgeon in his shop, who was standing off to the side, waiting for the service manager to come to take a look at his car. The mechanic shouted across the garage," Hello Doctor!! Please come over here for a minute." The famous surgeon, a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic. The mechanic straightened up, wiped his hands on a rag and asked argumentatively, "So doctor, look at this. I also open hearts, take valves out, grind 'em, put in new parts, and when I finish this will work as a new one... So how come you get the big money, when you and me is doing basically the same work? " The doctor leaned over and whispered to the mechanic..... . . . . . . . ... .. .. Doctor said : " Try to do it when the Engine is RUNNING "

Some observations:

(Primafacie, a good joke;I admit, but in support of the medical Doctor)

1. To this the mechanic should have told, "Try doing what Im doing with your patients, let me see.In other words, switch-off their engine,repair their parts and then replace them back and make it running."And this time the Doctor would be flabbergasted,am sure!

2. Also, many mechanics, switch-on the engine and work,test the speed of rotary blades,etc.So guess the Doctor does not know about car-mechanics much nor does the mechanic know how to communicate...Or the joke's punchline is incomplete.

In anycase,the mechanic has a point.Every professional must be respected.In our country we tend to focus just on a few professions and elevate them in our minds--Doctors,Engineers,etc.And renegade the rest to the back-seat.There should be dignity of labour shown to all professions and no profession is greater than the other.Medical profession,no doubt saves lives;but bereft of an ambulance--which needs many mechanical parts to run,many a life would not have been saved.

Just my thoughts.Keep rocking!
