What Did They Say ?

Question

An elderly gentleman had serious hearing problems for a number of years.

He went to the doctor and the doctor was able to have him fitted for a set of hearing aids that allowed him to hear 100%.

He went back in a month and the doctor said, "Your hearing is perfect.
Your family must be really pleased that you can hear again."

The gentleman replied, "Oh, I haven't told my family yet. I just sit around and listen to the conversations.
I've changed my will three times!"

Answer 1

Ha! Love it!

Lol, Rooster, thank you.

Answer 2

Ah, Marianne...even though my own hearing is within normal range, I still know that I do not hear as acutely as when I was younger! There has been some loss as I age...(sigh)

But I have not found a way to capitalize on that as has the hero of your story...

Lol, Virginia, me neither - although I had always to make sure to understand well, especially on the phone.

Answer 3

Roofer's helper on the ground, calling to his boss on the roof: "Hey, Boss, did I leave my hammer up there?"

Boss: "What's that you say?"

Helper: "Did I leave my hammer up there?"

Boss: "What?"

Helper: "DID I LEAVE MY HAMMER ON THE ROOF?"

Boss: "What?"

Helper (muttering, sotto voce): "Gosh, what an idiot."

Boss: "I HEARD THAT! "

Lol, T(h)ink - a good one! That's also a creative idea (at least for bosses).
