"X rays of a trauma patient" joke

While working as a radiology technician in a hospital emergency room, I took X rays of a trauma patient. I brought the films to our radiologist, who studied the multiple fractures of both femurs and pelvis. "What happened to this patient?" he asked in astonishment.
"He fell out of a tree," I reported.
The radiologist wanted to know what the patient was doing up a tree. "I'm not sure, but his paperwork states he works for Acme
Tree Experts."
Gazing intently at the X rays, the radiologist blinked and said, "Cross out' experts.'"
