Doctor says to patient, “I have good news and bad news”.
Patient says, “Give me the bad news first”.
Doctor replies, “I have to amputate both of your legs at the knees”.
Patient: “WOW! That is really bad news! Please tell me the good news”.
Doctor: “The guy in the next room wants to buy your shoes!”
Sir, I’ve got good news and bad news about your missing wife. The bad news is that we found her in about three feet of water and when we pulled her up she was covered with crabs, mussels and crayfish.
Good news: I finally got a job! I’ll be working in a call center 15 minutes from my house.
Bad news: Woke up with a sore throat on the first day. Two days later it’s a full-blown sinus infection. I got sent home after one hour on Friday and was not called back in today.
::hijack:: my first day on my new job a couple decades back, my car stalled for about 10 minutes but finally started on its own. When I walked in a couple minutes late, I apologized and they said “no problem, we were just worried that you wouldn’t show up at all!” cause it was one of those fast turnover jobs.
A friend of my mother’s says she’s very glad she’s in good health, because “it must be horrible to lose your mind!” She also says she doesn’t understand why her children insist in sleeping at her house so often, although she can never remember whether any of them did the previous night. Or the one before, or… Yeah.
The good news: I just received an ad for a job in New Zealand which sounds enormously interesting.
The bad news: I’ve got a job until January, that one would start a lot sooner. Dangit.
The good news: I got a text asking me if I want a job.
The bad news: It’s from a former boss who drinks too much, is too erratic, and once our paychecks bounced because the IRS had seized his accounts.
Doctor: I’ve got good news and bad news,
Patient: What’s the good news?
Doctor: You’ve got 24 hours to live.
Patient: My God! What’s the bad news?
Doctor: I forgot to call you yesterday.
