Anyone who has ever been in a hospital or had a loved one in
the hospital will enjoy this:

A woman called a local hospital. "Hello! Could you connect
me to the person who gives information about patients. I'd
like to find out if a patient is getting better, doing as
expected, or getting worse."
The voice on the other end said, "What is the patient's name
and room number?" "Sarah Finkel, in room 302." "I'll connect
you with the nursing station."

Nursing Station! How can I help you?"
"I'd like to know the condition of Sarah Finkel in room
302." "Just a moment please! Let me look at her
records. Mrs. Finkel is doing very well. In fact, she's
had two full meals and her blood pressure is fine. She will
be taken off the heart monitor in a couple of hours and, if
she continues this improvement, Dr. Cohen is going to send
her home Tuesday at noon."

The woman said, "What a relief! Oh, that's fantastic...
that's wonderful news!"

The nurse said, "From your enthusiasm, I take it you are a
close family member or a very close friend!"

"Neither! I'm Sarah Finkel in 302! Nobody here tells me
shit!"
