The Lawyer's Lexus
|
A very successful lawyer parked his brand-new Lexus in front of his
office, ready to show it off to his colleagues. As he got out, a truck
passed too close and completely tore off the door on the driver's side
of the Lexus. He immediately grabbed his cell phone, dialed 911, and
within minutes a policeman pulled up. Before the officer had a chance to
ask any questions, the lawyer started screaming hysterically. His Lexus,
which he had just picked up the day before, was now completely ruined
and would never be the same, no matter what the body shop did to it.
When the lawyer finally wound down from his ranting and raving, the officer shook his head in disgust and disbelief. "I can't believe how materialistic you lawyers are," he said. "You are so focused on your possessions that you don't notice anything else." "How can you say such a thing?" asked the lawyer. The cop replied, "Don't you know that your left arm is missing from the elbow down? It must have been torn off when the truck hit you." "My God!" screamed the lawyer. "Where's my Rolex?" |
