New Olympic sport?

'O' is for Olympic.

Continuing the Alpha(Bet) males - The life in my men in my life - July challenge,

Last weekend I met one of my cousins, a highly qualified doctor who had applied to be a volunteer doctor at the Olympic Games.

In their egalitarian wisdom the Olympic organisers decided all volunteers had to go through the same interview process. She explained what happened.
Interviewed by a youth in a 'hoody', she was asked:

'Give us some examples of voluntary work you have done to qualify you to be a volunteer'

'Well, I've been a doctor for 30 years, I work as a GP and in a hospital and I'm a professor in my area of expertise.'

'No, that's your profession, we need examples of volunteering.'

'But, I'm applying to be a volunteer doctor.'

'So what voluntary work have you done to qualify you for this role?'

'Oh come on! OK , once a chap collapsed on the tube train I was on and I helped him.'

'That's not really a volunteer role.'

'No, but I am a doctor, so I went to his aid.'

She failed the interview and was rejected. She wrote to complain about the interview, stating that surely to volunteer as a doctor, the main qualification needed, really is to be a doctor. Eventually after a lengthy exchange of emails, they changed the procedure and she has been accepted and is now working as a volunteer doctor, full time, in the Olympic village with the athletes.

O is also for Olly...
Once upon a time there was an Olly, Oooooh! Nice, thanks. The End.


For those of you, like me, that didn't know, this is the official 2012 song 'Survival' by Muse...

Any thoughts?
