The Harley Mechanic and the Cardiologist

"The Harley Mechanic and the Cardiologist"

A mechanic was removing a cylinder-head from the motor of a Harley motorcycle when he spotted a well-known cardiologist in his shop. The cardiologist was there waiting for the service manager to come and 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 ask, "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 $39,675 a year and you get the really big bucks ($1,695,759) 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."

Excellent joke, but the facts are: During a heart transplant, your heart is force to stop and it is jump started once all the arteries are attached.

True.

But,and this is just my opinion, the cardiologist is overpaid.
