For a couple of years I have been blaming it on lack of sleep, not enough sunshine, too much pressure from studying and working, earwax build up , poor blood clotting or anything else I could think of. But NOWWWWW!!! I have found out the real reason. I am tired because I am overworked.
Here's why!
The population of this country is 273 million.
140 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 armed forces preoccupied with their own armies duties. Which leaves 16.2 million to do the work.
Take from the total 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 people to do the work.
Now there are 1,211,998 people in prisons. That leaves just, just two people to do the work. You and me.........
And there you are siting on your butt, at your chair, reading this. Nice, nice, real nice :mad
Legal / Logical
After failing his "Logistics and Organization" exam, a student confronted his professor.
"Sir, do you understand anything about this subject?"
"Of course, otherwise I would not be a professor!"
"Really? Then allow me to ask you one question. If you answer it correctly, I'll accept my failing grade and leave quietly, but if you don't know the answer, I want an 'A' on my exam."
"Okay, it's a deal. What's your question?"
"What is legal but not logical, logical but not legal, and neither logical nor legal?"
After long consideration, the professor conceded and changed the student's score to an "A."
Afterwards, the professor asked one of his best students the same question.
The good student answered immediately: "Sir, you are 63 years old and married to a 35-year-old woman which is legal but not logical; your wife has a 22-year-old lover which is logical but not legal - and the fact that you have given your wife's lover an 'A' when he should have failed is neither legal nor logical!"
