A Scotsman phones a dentist to inquire about the cost for a tooth extraction .
"85 for an extraction, sir" the dentist replied
.
"85! Huv ye no' got anythin' cheaper?"
"That's the normal charge," said the dentist.
"Wit aboot if ye didnae use any anaesthetic?"
"That's unusual, sir, but I could do it and knock 15 off."
"Whit aboot if ye used one of your dentist trainees and still without an anaesthetic?"
"I can't guarantee their professionalism and it'll be painful. But the price could drop to 40."
"How aboot if ye make it a trainin' session, ave yer student do the extraction, with the
other students watchin' and learnin'?"
It'll be good for the students", mulled the dentist. "I'll charge you 5, but it's going to be very traumatic."
"Och, now yer talkin' laddie! It's a deal," said the Scotsman."
"Can ye confirm an appointment for the wife next Tuesday then?"
