Mechanics and surgeons

[gromit]

A mechanic was removing a cylinder head from the motor of a
Harley motorcycle when he spotted a well-known heart surgeon
in his shop. The surgeon was waiting for the service manager
to take a look at his bike.
The mechanic shouted across the garage,
"Hey Doc, can I ask you a question?"
The surgeon, a bit surprised, walked over to the mechanic
working on the motorcycle. The mechanic straightened up,
wiped his hands on a rag and asked, "So Doc, look at this
engine. I open its 'heart', take valves out, fix 'em, put 'em
back in and, when I finish, it works just like new. So
how come I get such a measly salary and you get the
"really big bucks" when you and I are doing basically the
same kind of work?"
The surgeon paused, smiled, leaned over and whispered
to the mechanic, "Try doing it with the engine running."
