A new chiropractor rented an upscale office and furnished it with the latest adjusting equipment and beautiful furniture and antiques. However, no business was coming in.

Sitting behind the counter, worrying, he saw a man come into the reception room. Wanting to look busy, he picked up the phone and pretended he was scheduling a new patient and trying to work them into his crowded appointment book. He spoke loudly about the few available appointments left. Finally, he put down the phone and asked the visitor “Can I help you?”
The man said, “I’ve come to install the phone.”
