Two lawyers on a flight to London, one in the window seat the other sat in the middle seat.
Just before take-off, a doctor got on and took the aisle seat next to the two lawyers. The doctor kicked off his shoes, wiggled his toes and was settling in when the lawyer in the window seat said, I think I'll get up and get a coke. No problem, said the doctor. I’ll get it for you. While the doctor was gone, one of the lawyers picked up one of the doctor’s shoes and spat in it.
When he returned with the drink the other lawyer said, That looks good, I think I’ll have one too. Again, the doctor obligingly went to fetch another coke. While he was gone, the other lawyer picked up the other shoe and spat in it.
The doctor returned and they all sat back and enjoyed the flight. As the plane was landing, the doctor slipped his feet into his shoes and knew immediately what had happened. How long must this go on, asked the doctor, this fighting between our professions? This hatred? This animosity? This spitting in shoes and pissing in cokes?
