Arriving home, a man was met by his sobbing wife.
Tearfully she explained, "The chemist. He insulted me this morning on the phone.
I had to call multiple times before he would even answer the phone."
The husband drove down to confront the Chemist to demand an apology.
Before he could say more than a word or two, the Chemist said "Now just a minute....hear my side of it.
This morning the alarm failed to go off. So, I was late.
Without breakfast, I hurried out to the car, to realise I locked the house with house and car keys inside.
I had to break a window to get my keys.
Driving a little too fast, I got a speeding ticket.
About 3 streets from the store, I had a flat tire.
When I finally got to the store, a bunch of people were waiting on me to open up.
I started waiting on these people. All the time the damn phone would not stop ringing.
Then I had to break open a bag of coins against the cash register drawer to give change, and they spilled all over the floor.
I had to get down on my hands and knees to pick up the coins. The phone was still ringing.
When I came up, I cracked my head on the open cash drawer, which made me stagger back against a showcase with bottles of expensive perfume on it.
Half of them hit the floor and broke.
Meanwhile the phone is still ringing with no let up. I finally got to answer it.
It was your wife. She wanted to know how to use a rectal thermometer.
And believe me, mate, I kid you not. All I did was tell her!!"
