Things that make you go Hmmmm....
The Doctor vs. the Automotive Technician
We accept that a doctor will need to schedule some time for us to come into the office so that he/she can examine us. We need to provide some detail as to what is ailing us, so the doctor can focus on the source of the problem. We understand that research and the use of specialized test equipment is necessary, and it will require a trained technician to analyze the data from the specialized equipment.
And yet, we have trouble accepting that all of the above statements are equally true when substituting the word automotive technician for the word doctor…But they are!
We don’t go to the supermarket pharmacy for a free MRI so why do we go to the cut-rate parts house for a free computer scan?
