Nurse
A big shot attorney had to spend a couple of days in the hospital.
He was a royal pain to the nurses because he bossed them around just
like he did his staff. None of the hospital staff wanted to have anything to do with him.
The head nurse was the only one who could stand up to him.
She came into his room and announced, "I have to take your temperature."
After complaining for several minutes, he finally settled down, crossed his arms and opened his mouth.
"No, I'm sorry," the nurse stated, "but for this reading, I can't use an oral thermometer."
This started another round of complaining but eventually he rolled over and bared his behind.
After feeling the nurse insert the thermometer, he heard her announce, “I have to get something. Now you stay JUST LIKE THAT until I get back!"
She left the door to his room open on her way out. He cursed under his breath as he heard people walking past his door, laughing.....
After about 20 minutes, the man's doctor came into the room. "What's going on here?" asked the doctor.
Angrily, the man answered, "What's the matter, Doc? Haven't you ever seen someone having their temperature taken?"
After a pause, the doctor confessed..... "Not with a Daffodil."

I recall a 80's Pommy TV series about a hospital doing just in one episode!
Mind you, whenever I hear the word "Nurse!" spoken out loud I automatically think of Derek And Clive...

The same gag also appeared in an episode of ER
It must be a popular joke in the medical profession, I am sure though a tulip would be just as effective

Nurses will always have the last word as they hold the blunt end of the syringe.

There was a man from Australia
Who painted his a#$$ like a dahlia
The design was all right
The colour quite bright
But the scent was a Hell of a failure.

I just had a look to see who submitted it previously
and was surprised to see it was me. (2013).
Was even more surprised to see that Hugh had submitted
the same poem in response to it that he has this time.
As I have said many times, most jokes get regurgitated
at some time.

Ground hog day? or may be some thing to do with being three quarters of a century old, I thought this was the first time I had submitted it. Originally Posted by Allan at Wallan

Methinks the situation is right out of a Carry On Doctor film in the early 60's

I remember reading that in "Reader's Digest" column, "Humor in Uniform". Only it was a general pulling rank on everyone.
That had to be during the mid-fifties.
