Why are Doctors and Dentists so hard to design for?

Well... since so many I've worked for have the God complex, and God is the Creator, how do you design for the One who designed it all?

Great answer David...now based on the "God complex" theory...would that mean that agnostic and atheist doctors and dentists are easier to design for.

That agnostic or atheist doc would not believe in his own existence. I don't know how that would affect designing for him but he might use it as a loophole when it comes to payment: "I don't exist, therefore, I can't write you a check."

I'm sure that... "we really don't exist"...is philosophical postulating by some people...but I've never personally known an agnostic or atheist who denied their own existence...and I've known a few of them in my day...in fact isn't Bob Sauls one them [Wink]

Rusty. What did the Zen Buddist say to the hot dog vendor?

"Make me one with everything"

I'll be opening for Michael.

At the last checkup I had, they made strip down to my underwear then started feeling around all over my body, poking and prodding... I swear, if I had better insurance I would change dentists.

So it's no secret I'm a little on the "heavy" side, I went to my doctor's office and told him that I had tried every possible way to lose weight, to no avail. So my doctor proposes a radical diet: rectal feeding. He reassured me that I won't starve to death, that I can actually take in enough nutrients through the rectal walls to sustain life, but that I'm sure to lose weight in the process.

Three weeks later I went back in for a follow-up appointment, and I'm down from 360 to a trim 175 pounds. The doctor shows me into his office and asks me how I'm feeling, noticing that I'm bouncing up and down in my seat quite energetically. "I'm feeling great, doc; never felt better" is my reply.

"In that case, why are you bouncing up and down like that?" asked the doctor.

"Just chewing some gum!"

I asked my doctor: "do you think that I will live until I am
95, like both of my grandparents?

Doctor: "How old are you now?"

Me: "45"

Doctor: "Do you drink, gamble, smoke or do you have any other vice?"

Me: "Nope. I don't drink. I don't gamble. I don't smoke. I have no vices."

Doctor: "Then why do you want to live for another fifty years?"
