Job Irony

[icyfroth]

On this mornings Breakfast show they were inviting callers to relate funny similarities to Professions or jobs relating to surnames.

One caller's surname was Reid, a diver whose job it is to clear scum and algae (and reeds) from council ponds and pools.

A Lady called in to say her obstetricians name was Dr Cocks, another who knew of a Dr Proctor who was also a Proctologist.

A Cardinal in the Phillipines called Cardinal Sin.

The funniest of all was one caller's father who worked in a bank, surnamed Crooks, and his mother, working at the same bank, whose maiden name was Forge.  

Anybody else know of any?

As a workup prior to my heart transplant, every orifice was invaded by a camera, and one day I was being probed by a proctologist named..........Quigley.

I mentioned that her actions would make a good movie title.........

Quigley Down Under..........

Numerous giggles ensued..........

There used to be a couple of Drs in Canberra, one was Dr Death and the other Dr Cutter (who I think might have been a surgeon, but that may be my imagination)

I always had a chuckle about Dr Death
