For a couple 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 273 million. 273,000.000
140 million are retired. -140,000,000
That leaves 133 million to do the work. 133,000,000
There are 85 million in school. 85,000,000
Which leaves 48 million to do the work. 48,000,000
Of this there are 29 million employed by the federal government. -29,000,000
Leaving 19 million to do the work. 19,000,000
2.8 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing Osama Bin-Laden. -2,800,000
Which leaves 16.2 million to do the work 16,200,000
Take from that total the 14.8 million people who work for state/city governments. -14,800.000
And that leaves 1.4 million to do the work. 1,400,000
At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals. -188,000
Leaving 1,212,000 to do the work. 1,212,000
Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons. -1,211,998
That leaves just two people to do the work. 2
You and me.
And there you are sitting on your ass, at your computer, reading jokes.
Nice. Real nice.
