Overheard in the medical lab while waiting for a routine blood draw:
Phlebotomist: Do you have a preference for which arm?
Patient: No, just don't touch my elbow.
Phlebotomist: Oh, did you injjure it?
Patient: No, it's more of a phobia. I really don't like people touching my elbow… or my knees.
Phlebotomist: Don't worry; I won't go near your knees. Is it OK if I touch your wrist?
Patient: Yeah, just not my elbow.
(People who work with people must have a lot of stories to share with their co-workers.
