Yes, I’m tired. For several years, I’ve been blaming it on
Middle age,poor blood, lack of vitamins, air pollution, saccharin,
obesity,dieting, under arm odour, yellow wax build up and another
dozen maladies that make you wonder if life is really worth living.
But I found out it isn’t that. I’m tired because I am over-worked.
The population of this country is 51 million 21 million are retired
That leaves 30 million to do the work
There are 19 million at school
That leaves 11 million to do the work
2 million are unemployed and 4 million are employed by the Government
That leaves 5 million to do the work
One million are in the armed forces, which leaves 4 million to
do the work
3 million are employed by the County and Borough Councils
leaving 1 million to do the work
There are 620,000 people in hospital and 379,998 in prisons
Which leaves 2 people to do the work
You and me
And you are sitting on your arse reading this.
No wonder I’m bloody tired.
