A Sindhi telephones a Dentist to inquire about the cost for tooth extraction. Dentist: Rs 850 Sir. Sindhi : Rs 850!!! Too much! Don't you have anything cheaper? Dentist: That's the normal charge, Sir. Sindhi: What if you don't use any anesthetic? Dentist: That's unusual, Sir, but can be done and will cut the cost by Rs 150. Sindhi : Ok. And what if you deploy one of your trainee-dentists to do the extraction, without anesthetic? Dentist: Well, I cannot guarantee professionalism and it also would be painful. But the price could drop down to Rs 400. Sindhi: Hmm. What if you make it like a training-session, like one of your students does the extraction, while the other students watch and learn? Dentist: It'll be good for the students but quite traumatic. I will pay you Rs 200 for it. Sindhi: Now you're talking! Ok, it's a deal. Can I confirm an appointment for my mother-in-law for tomorrow then? whaatsmiley
