Another Woolies service!?

WOOLLIES


One day, in a queue at the company cafeteria, Joe says to Mike
behind
him, "My elbow hurts like hell. I guess I better see a doctor."
"Listen, you don't have to spend that kind of money," Mike replies.
"There's a diagnostic computer down at Woolworth's. Just give it a
urine sample and the computer will tell you what's wrong and what to
do about it. It takes ten seconds and costs R20.00 ...a lot quicker than a
doctor."

So Joe deposits a urine sample in a small jar and takes it to
Woolies. He deposits R20.00, and the computer lights up and asks for the
urine sample. He pours the sample into the slot and waits. Ten seconds
later, the computer ejects a printout: "You have tennis elbow. Soak
your arm in warm water and avoid heavy activity. It will improve in
two weeks."

Thank you for shopping @ Woolies.

That evening while thinking how amazing this new technology was, Joe
began wondering if the computer could be fooled.
He mixed some tap water, a stool sample from his dog, urine samples from his wife and daughter, and a sperm sample for good measure.


Joe hurries back to Woolies, eager to check the results. He deposits
R20.00 , pours in his concoction, and awaits the results.

The computer prints the following:
1. Your tap water is too hard. Get a water softener. (Aisle 9)
2. Your dog has ringworm. Bathe him with anti-fungal shampoo.(Aisle 7)
3. Your daughter has a cocaine habit. Get her into rehab.
4. Your wife is pregnant, Twins. They aren't yours. Get a lawyer (1 st floor).
5. If you don't stop masturbating, your elbow will never get better.

Thank you for shopping @ Woolies
