For a couple of years I've been blaming it on lack of sleep, not
enough sunshine, too much pressure from my job, earwax build-up,
poor blood or anything else I could think of.
But now I found out the real reason. I'm tired because I'm
overworked.
Here's why: The population of this country is 25 million.
[Australia!]
11 million are retired. That leaves 14 million to do the work.
There are 9 million in school, which leaves 5 million to do the
work.
Of this there are 3 million employed by the federal government,
leaving 2 million to do the work.
0.5 Million are in the armed forces preoccupied with finding
Osama bin Laden.
Which leaves 1.5 million to do the work.
Take from the total the 1 million people who work for state and
local governments, and that leaves 500,000 people to do the work.
At any given time there are 280,000 people in hospitals, leaving
220,000 people to do the work.
Now, there are 219,998 people in prisons. That leaves just two
people to do the work.
You and me.
And there you are sitting on your arse, at your computer,
reading jokes.
Nice, real nice.
