A very successful lawyer parked his brand-new Lexus in front of his
office, ready to show it off to his colleagues. As he got out, a truck passed
too close and completely tore the door off of the driver's side. The counselor
immediately grabbed his cell phone, dialed 911, and within minutes a policeman
pulled up.
Before the officer had a chance to ask any questions, the lawyer started
screaming hysterically. His Lexus, which he had just picked up the day before,
was now completely ruined and would never be the same, no matter what the body
shop did to it.
When the lawyer finally wound down from his ranting and raving, the officer
shook his head in disgust and disbelief.
"I can't believe how materialistic you lawyers are," he said. "You are so
focused on your possessions that you don't notice anything else."
"How can you say such a thing?" asked the lawyer.
The cop replied, "Don't you know that your left arm is missing from the elbow
down? It must have been torn off when the truck hit you."
"Ahhh!" screamed the lawyer. "Where's my Rolex!"
