For a couple years I've been blaming it on
lack of sleep and too much pressure from my job,
but now I found out the real reason:
I'm
tired because I'm overworked!
The
population of this country is 237
million.
104
million are retired.
That
leaves 133 million to do the work.
There
are 85 million in school,
which leaves 48 million to do the work.
Of
this there are 29 million employed
by the federal government,
leaving 19 million to do the work.
2.8
million are in the Armed Forces,
which leaves 16.2 million to do the work.
Take
from the total the 14,800,000 people
who work for State and City Governments
and that leaves 1.4 million to do the work.
At
any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals, leaving
1,212,000 to do the work.
Now,
there are 1,211,998 people in prisons.
That
leaves just two people to do the work.
You
and me.
And
you are sitting at your computer
reading jokes...
