Why am I so tired?

WHY I AM SO TIRED...


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 30 million. 11 million are retired.
That leaves 19 million to do the work.

There are 5.5 million in school, which leaves 13.5 million to do the
work.


Of this there are 3 million employed by the federal government,
leaving 10.5 million to do the work.! !

1 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with fighting the
Taliban. Which leaves 9.5 million to do the work.

Take from the total the 7 million people who work for provincial and
city governments And that leaves 2.5 million to do the work.

At any given time there are 476,000 people in hospitals, Leaving
2,024,000 to do the work.

Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons and 812,000 on Employment
Insurance and Welfare. That leaves just two people to do the work.

You and me.

And there you are sitting on your a$$, at your computer, reading Reef Central Lounge
jokes.

Nice, real nice...

Actually, as of July of 2005 it is estimated that our population is:

295,734,134

So you were only about 265,734,134 people off.

Furthermore, estimated in 2004 was our labor force. It was estimated at 147.4 million (includes unemployed).



But, yes, a decent joke all-the-less.
