A Mechanic vs. A 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 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 asked, '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
me chanic...

Yeah, but when the surgeon or doctor screws up, he still expects to get paid  ???  Go figure.
Lawyers the same $hit.
