XXX-Ray

(I’m in a hospital waiting to get my X-ray done. Eventually it’s my turn and the X-ray tech is getting me changed in a little cubicle with some folded hospital gowns on the bench.)

Tech: “So I’ll need you to take everything off, including the bra, but you can leave your underwear and socks. Once you’re done just come into the room.”

(The tech starts to leave but quickly turns back.)

Tech: “Oh wait. I mean, put on a gown so it’s open at the back, and then come in!”

(We both laugh and she closes the door. After I get changed I walk in and she gets me seated on the X-ray bed.)

Tech: “Sorry. I know you probably knew what I meant, but you always need to be specific when you get people changed. You’d be surprised how many people come out completely naked!”
