expressions or tems that you should not say:

When you are doing a root canal on a woman you don't ask your assistant for a "Reamer".

I made that mistake once... she about came unglued.

We call it an R file now.

"Spaded" instead of "SPAYED"...

As in: "I got my dog spaded".... Um... so was she hit with a SHOVEL, or was she taken to the vet for "puppy prevention" surgery???

That one used to drive me *NUTS* when I was working as a vet tech.!!

I used to work on a farm with a guy who when you asked him if he did this, that or the other for the horses he'd say, "It's ok, They won't die."

He wants to have his cake and eat it too. EVERYONE SAYS IT THAT WAY. Well, you CAN have your cake and eat it too. The saying is, He wants to EAT his cake and (still) have it too. When you want something that is not possible.

When I was a door to door salesman back in college we were always taught to compliment a homemaker on something in her home or something about herself.

My salesmanager didn't think it was funny when I complimented one lady by sayin', "Geez fer a fat lady, you sure don't sweat much!"
