First-year students at the Vet School were attending their
first anatomy class, with a real dead cow. They
all gathered around the surgery table with the
body covered with a white sheet.
The professor started the class by telling them, "In Veterinary medicine & nbsp;
it is necessary to have two important qualities
as a doctor: the first is that you not be
disgusted by anything involving the animal body"
For an example, the Professor pulled back the sheet,
stuck his finger in the butt of the dead cow,
withdrew it and stuck his finger in his mouth.
"Go ahead and do the same thing," he told his students
Students freaked out, hesitated for several
minutes, but eventually took turns sticking a
finger in the butt of the dead cow and sucking on it.
When everyone finished, the Professor looked at them
and said, "the second most important quality is
observation. I stuck in my middle finger and sucked on my index finger.
Now, learn to pay attention.
Life's tough, but it's even tougher if you're stupid.."
